There have been new developments in the legal battle involving Vince McMahon, with Janel Grant taking further legal action. Previously, Grant had sued McMahon, John Laurinaitis, and WWE for sexual assault and trafficking. She has now filed a petition against Dr. Carlon Colker to obtain her medical records. Grant’s lawyer claims that Colker did not disclose the substances and treatments she received at his clinic, leading to this new legal action. Allegations suggest McMahon directed Grant to seek treatment at Colker’s clinic, prompting the need for evidence in the ongoing lawsuit.
Reports by Brandon Thurston of Wrestlenomics reveal that Dr. Colker and his Peak Wellness clinic have responded by filing their own petition. They are looking for evidence from Grant to potentially support defamation, tortious interference with business relations, and emotional distress claims. Colker’s legal team disputes Grant’s allegations, stating they always informed her about the prescribed medications and denying accusations of “pushback.”
Colker’s filing is seen as possibly laying the groundwork for a defamation lawsuit against Grant. His attorneys argue that Grant’s alleged falsehoods have harmed Colker and Peak Wellness financially and reputationally. They claim the damages could reach tens of millions of dollars.
Vince McMahon’s lawyer, Jessica Taub Rosenberg, criticized Grant for seeking discovery in state court during a federal court stay. However, Grant’s attorney, Ann Callis, defended her actions, asserting her right to access her medical records from Colker.
Colker’s petition aims to obtain various records from Grant, including phone data, emails, social media messages, and documents related to her treatment at his clinic. He also seeks to depose Grant as part of their legal response to the ongoing proceedings.
Further updates on the situation will be provided as new information emerges and the case continues to develop.
