Carey denies vet’s unpaid bills claim
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 28 June 2010
Mariah Carey’s lawyer has dismissed a lawsuit filed with the New York court last week over allegedly unpaid vet bills.
A vet called Cindy Bressler says the singer owes her nearly $30,000 in unpaid fees relating to some very expensive sounding treatment received by the diva’s dogs. Her legal man told the New York press his client had “provided lifesaving, round-the-clock medical care to Mariah Carey’s puppy” and that “this was a serious medical matter that required professional care by a veterinarian and veterinary nurses”.
But Carey’s attorney Orin Snyder called the lawsuit “baseless” and “a crass publicity stunt”, vowing that the singer will fight the litigation. He told reporters on Friday: “This abusive lawsuit appears to be a crass publicity stunt. As a matter of principle, Mariah intends to fight this baseless case and is confident that it will be dismissed”.
