by Jacky Jasper

The alleged battery of Jayde Nicole by Girls Gone Wild founder Joe Francis on August 28, 2009 inside of the Hollywood Nightclub Guys & Dolls has taken another legal turn. According to sources and court filings (attached below) Joe Francis will find himself answering these allegations in a court of law. Against none other than his long time legal adversary and Hollywood’s #1 problem solver, Attorney Ronald Richards.

It’s not looking good for Joey mane! Know why?

While the District Attorney continues their investigation into criminal charges against Francis, Jayde and her attorney Ronald Richards have chosen to take the offensive and have filed a civil case against Francis for Battery.

The complaint filed today reveals:

On or about August 28, 2009, Plaintiff was on the premises of “Guys & Dolls” Nightclub in West Hollywood, CA., when without cause, defendant FRANCIS intentionally, and with reckless disregard for NICOLE’s physical and emotional well-being, physically attacked NICOLE.

In an intoxicated and uncontrollable rage, defendant FRANCIS, who weighs over 200 lbs., physically attacked Plaintiff NICOLE, approximately 115 lbs., by pulling on her hair from behind to gain maximum control over her person and then violently shoving and/ or throwing her to the ground of the nightclub like a rag-doll causing injuries to Plaintiff NICOLE’S person.

In addition, FRANCIS is a convicted felon with a lengthy criminal record that includes violations of 18 U.S.C. § 2257(f)(1), failure to maintain records, 18 U.S.C. § 401, criminal contempt, Fl. Stat. Ann § 827.03(1)(c), felony Child Abuse, Fl.Stat. Ann § 796.07(2)(f), Prostitution. In addition, he has recently executed a plea agreement to which he agreed to plead guilty to filing a fraudulent tax return and bribery and in fact plead guilty to those charges on September 23, 2009. He is expected to be sentenced November 6, 2009.

As expected or should have been expected by Defendant FRANCIS, as a result of the violent outburst and much to the chagrin of defendant FRANCIS, the crowd inside of the nightclub became excited and enraged by what they were witnessing. In an effort by the crowd to gain a glimpse of soft-porn smut series, “Girl’s Gone Wild” owner/creator FRANCIS engaged in a no-holds-barred attack on a helpless and defenseless woman, NICOLE began to be trampled by uninterested person/ patrons of the nightclub attempting to get as close as possible to what was taking place, whereby Plaintiff NICOLE sustained severe and painful additional injuries to her person and psyche as a direct and proximate result of FRANCIS pulling her hair.

As a direct and proximate result of the attack by defendant FRANCIS, NICOLE suffered injuries, including but not limited to, black-eye, swollen face, bruised ribs, sore and bruised abdomen region, bruised arms and legs, ripped-out hair, and utter emotional distress and humiliation.

Guys and Doll’s surveillance system clearly shows the attack upon Ms. NICOLE, specifically, the footage shows FRANCIS charge towards NICOLE and pull her hair to the ground causing the injuries set forth above.

According to Brody Jenner, he and his girlfriend, Jayde Nicole, were at the club celebrating his birthday, when Jayde saw Francis harassing Abbey Wilson, an ex girlfriend of Francis’. Jayde and Brody who are friends with Abbey confronted Francis and Jayde emptied her drink on him.

Francis then pulled Jayde’s hair, punched bringing the petite Playmate model crashing to the ground landing on her face . Security broke it up and Francis got dragged away, Brody followed. Jenner says he started yelling at Francis and both men were ejected from the club.

After the melee Jayde was left with a swollen and black and blue face along with several bruised ribs and a sore abdomen.

When contacted for comment n the matter attorney Ronald Richards had this to say, “Joe Francis may have escaped further custody time in federal prison but justice will be sought for my client Jayde Nicole who was yet another female victim of Mr. Francis’s exploitation of young females. The video clearly shows Mr. Francis using excessive force causing serious injury to Ms. Nicole’s person. She is committed to this matter to encourage other victims of his violence or abusive behavior to come forward and not be afraid of standing up for woman’s rights everywhere. Nothing Ms. Nicole did that evening warranted the battery committed by Mr. Francis against her, NOTHING.”
