Alaskan Bush People’s Ami Brown hires new high-powered lawyer in $500K lawsuit after late Billy ‘failed to pay investor’

ALASKAN Bush People’s Ami Brown hired a new high-powered lawyer in her $500,000 court battle after her late husband Billy “failed to pay investor profits.”

Robert Maughon, a Tennessee doctor, filed a lawsuit against Billy’s estate, which Ami is in charge of, and the late star’s business Alaskan Wilderness Family Productions for breach of contract on April 27, 2021.

In court papers obtained by The Sun, Ami filed to replace her current lawyer Dale L. Crandall with Robert M. Schiesser of the same law firm. 

According to the attorney's website, Robert’s experience includes: "Practice in Administrative/Regulatory/Municipal Law, Land Use, Water Rights and Regulation, Real Estate, Civil Litigation in Business, Real Estate, Personal Injury and Employment, Family and Juvenile Law, Estate Planning, and Probate.”

COURT BATTLE

The change in attorneys comes amid the heated court war. 

As The Sun previously reported, Robert claimed in his complaint that he entered into a contract with Billy on January 6, 2009, where he invested $20,000.

He claimed Billy, who is an author, agreed to pay him 10 percent of income from the publication and sales of Alaska Wilderness Family Productions derived from books written by Billy.

The payments were allegedly supposed to be for a period of 10 years from the contract date. 

Robert claimed in the court papers: “Billy Bryan Brown failed to pay to Plaintiff Robert Micky Maughon the monies called for in the Ten Year contract.”

He then alleged a second contract was made on January 25, 2009, where he invested $10,000 for a “lifetime.”
