Maguire fights back in legal case; Dwayne Wade receives offer of employment
Tobey Maguire has filed legal documents that may go some way to clearing his name in a legal case that was filed against him. According to TMZ, the papers show that Maguire wasn’t a success 100% of the time during the poker ring. Included are three checks showing he paid the claimant, Brad Ruderman, a total of $168,500 between July 2007 and January 2009. The accounts from which the checks are issued are even labeled “Poker Account” and “Poker Account (2)”.
Ruderman, himself a Ponzi scheme felon, is in bankruptcy and the trustees want the Spiderman star to repay $300,000 to Ruderman. After the poker ring was uncovered late last month other Hollywood actors such as Ben Affleck have also been linked to game that Ruderman lost around $25million of investors money on.
It’s been a while since Maguire had his job as Spiderman. Much like Tobey, another group who can sit back and relax for a while are NBA players. Accordingly players are receiving by the second. Whereas some will go and ply their trade in Europe prior to the 2012 Olympics, Dwayne Wade might not be one of them. He’s been offered a his old job back with Colonel Sanders.
Wade Tweeted earlier about looking for a new line of work and it seems that KFC has come to his rescue. The job offer on the table would be as an “honorary captain at a local KFC drive-thru window.” While the firm recognizes they can’t match his Miami Heat salary they will make a donation in Wade’s name to the Colonel’s Scholars charity. The full letter can be seen at the bottom of the page.
