David Beckham files appeal to reinstate $25m lawsuit against prostitute
David Beckham Former England captain, David Beckham has filed an appeal in his $25 million dollar lawsuit against a magazine publisher and a Bosnian hooker.
The sportstar’s lawsuit was dismissed in a California court - after the judge determined that In Touch Weekly's article titled David's Dangerous Betrayal, published on October 4, 2010, was in the public interest.
Prostitute Irma Nici, 26, reportedly had a series of sexual encounters with the footballer for $10,000 cash in London and New York in 2007.
Lawyers have filed an appeal asking that the lawsuit against Bauer Publishing, which owns In Touch Weekly, and Nici, be re-instated citing reasons: "Bauer did not produce critical documents or evidence related to its internet ‘research’ concerning Beckham. Notably, it never produced documents by which it claimed confirmed
Beckham's whereabouts during the time periods in question."
The LA Galaxy star has strongly denied the allegations, and he says he has never even met the prostitute.
