Justin Bieber's egg-attack neighbors told to undergo psychological exams
Justin Bieber's former neighbors have been told they must submit to a psychological exam after accusing the pop star of emotional terrorism.
Jeffrey and Suzanne Schwartz were at the center of the egg-throwing vandalism drama that landed Bieber in trouble with the law, and now it looks as if the Baby singer's accusers are under the spotlight.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Holly Fujie has insisted on the
mental evaluations, claiming the tests are essential if the
Schwartzes plan to prove they suffered severe emotional distress as
a result of Bieber's actions.
The couple's lawyers have argued the psychological examinations are
not necessary.
Bieber had to pay the Schwartzes $80,000 (GBP60,000) for the damage
his egg-throwing incident caused to their home. He has completed
probation in a misdemeanor vandalism case filed over the
incident.
Jeffrey Schwartz also accused Bieber of spitting on him.
In their lawsuit filed against Bieber in March, 2015, the pair
claim the singer terrorized their family with parties and
aggressive driving around their Calabasas, California
neighborhood.
Shortly after his altercation with the pair, Bieber moved out of
the area.
Bieber's attorney, Jeremiah Reynolds, tells Billboard.com he and
his client are pleased with the judge's ruling.
