Tim Norman Responds to Lawsuit from Robbie Montgomery
"Welcome to Sweetie Pies" star gives statement regarding his mother suing him.
- (1888PressRelease) August 02, 2016 - Last week Robbie Montgomery of Welcome to Sweetie Pies fame filed a lawsuit against her son Tim Norman, also from "Welcome to Sweetie Pies", claiming that he misappropriated her accounts and funds in connection with his management of their restaurant on Manchester Ave in St. Louis, their hometown. It was stated in court documents that Tim used funds to open three Sweetie Pies restaurants and also violating Sweetie Pie's trademarks.
In response to the lawsuit Tim has said "In this turn of events, unfortunately, outsiders appear to be misguiding and manipulating my mother to sell our family business. It's complicated, to say the least, as we have joint interest in various facets of the Sweetie Pies brand. I have to stay true to our brand and our business and I truly hope this disagreement can be settled between my mother and me." Sweetie Pies and family are both very important to Tim and he only wants the best for his mother adding, "I have always, and will always, want what is best for my mother, our family, and our people. This is the risk of doing business with loved ones and I am hopeful for swift resolution."
Tim's lawyer, Mary Ann L. Wymore Greensfelder of Hemker & Gale, P.C. released a statement about the matter saying: "The allegations leveled by Robbie Montgomery against her son, Tim Norman, are both meritless and disappointing. Tim has worked tirelessly alongside his mother to help build the Sweetie Pie's brand. While we strongly encouraged Ms. Montgomery's attorneys to work with us to attempt to resolve this family dispute pre-litigation, they refused to do so. We will now defend this lawsuit vigorously and are confident that Tim will be vindicated. Additionally we are investigating where this fictitious and false claim of disappearing money was generated and will take appropriate action against the instigator."
