Kobe Bryant is being sued in Federal Court by a fan who claims that Bryant deliberately elbowed him in the face.

According to court documents, Bill Geeslin claims that during a game against the Memphis Grizzlies on November 14 of last year, Bryant came off the court during play, landed on him, and that Bryant “committed assault and battery and engaged in extreme and outrageous conduct when [Bryant], without provocation, violently struck Mr. Geeslin with [his] elbow, causing Mr. Geeslin injury and damages.” So much for sitting courtside.

Three years ago Bryant settled an alleged rape case with the victim for a reported sum of $5 million dollars.
