Nick Gordon lost in a legal battle against the family of his late girlfriend Bobbi Kristina Brown. He was ordered by Judge T. Jackson Bedford to pay $36,250,000 million in the wrongful death suit against him. Krissy's family won by default after Gordon failed to meet court deadlines in the civil lawsuit.

"There was an urgent need, in my mind, to get justice for Bobbi Kristina Brown and that's why I took the case. We intend to pursue, with all vigor, the full collection of the judgment," the family's lawyer David Ware said in the statement. "We hope that in some small way this will allow Krissy's family to continue their quest for peace."
