An Irish Girl Received $9,600 Settlement over Justin Bieber Concert Wrist Injury!!

A 16-year-old girl Nadia Burke injured her right hand outside a Justin Bieber concert at The O2 in Dublin, Ireland last year, has received a settlement of €7,000 (or $9,600).

Via IrishTimes:

The Circuit Civil Court heard Nadia Burke was with other teenagers outside the arena last February trying to “catch a glimpse” of Justin as cars were moving in and out of gates which were being operated by security staff.

Nadia, who was 15 at the time, had been pushed forward and a security man had closed the gate on her hand. She had thought her hand was bruised and would recover quickly.

The girl said her hand was still sore a few days later and her mother, Nicola Burke, had taken her to the emergency department of Temple Street Children’s Hospital in Dublin.

Circuit Court President Mr Justice Raymond Groarke heard X-rays had first revealed a possible fracture and her wrist had been put in plaster.

She had been referred to a fracture clinic where further X-rays had come back clear. The plaster was removed and her wrist placed in a splint for several weeks. Her wrist had been painful for a couple of months.

Nadia, through her mother, had sued Amphitheatre Ireland Ltd, which trades as The O2, and also Aiken Promotions Ireland, of Holles Street, Dublin.

Judge Groarke approved a settlement offer of €7,000 (or $9,600).

It sucks that that happened!

Justin Bieber's Alleged Fight With Former Bodyguard Gets Trial Date!!

Feb. 18 is the date that has been set in the trial where Justin gets to confront the former bodyguard who is suing him. Moshe Benabou says that he was employed by Justin's touring company from March 2011 to October 2012 until an incident happened where Justn allegedly yelled, "You are fired!"

According to the original complaint, Justin was backstage prior to a concert when he began a tirade against Benabou. The complaints says:

The tirade was apparently triggered by what Justin Bieber perceived as an attempt by Moshe Benabou to keep one member of Mr. Bieber's entourage physically away from Justin Bieber.

As part of this tirade, Justin Bieber repeatedly punched Moshe Benabou in the chest and upper body area. Mr. Benabou did not retaliate or attempt to protect himself out of his concerns for Justin Bieber's physical well-being.

Justin and BT Touring are being sued for assault, battery and failure to pay claimed owed wages. Neither Justin, his team or BT Touring have said anything about this.

And I thought and even praying that 2014 will start off better than it did this year. What a timing. I would just like all this to be over and for Justin to get some air to breath. I just this case goes fast and people leave him alone. I kinda find it hard to believe that Justin caused physical harm to the well built bodyguard, enough to be seen as an asullt. But hey, I don´t know what went down there so we have to wait until next year to hear what´s going to happen.
