Overview
- Williams’ lawyers filed on December 3 detailing an alleged profanity-laced confrontation at a June 18 deposition and requested $9,400 in sanctions.
- The filing claims Wayne shouted “Do you know who I am?” used slurs, called over his bodyguard, and left before any questions were asked.
- Wayne’s team responded on December 4 denying he was the aggressor, accusing attorney Omar Taylor of hostile conduct, and seeking to bar Taylor from appearing in person at future depositions.
- The protective-order request proposes Taylor attend remotely, with Wayne’s counsel citing safety and decorum concerns in the deposition setting.
- The dispute unfolds within Williams’ 2022 civil suit alleging Wayne punched him on a private plane, a claim Wayne denies, as legal analysis warns the episode could hurt his defense strategy.
