The woman had been working for Brooks for 15 years. Then she moved to another state and started having money problems. She asked Brooks for help. When he stopped helping her, she made some serious charges about his behavior.
Brooks says that these charges are all lies. He says he only found out about them in July. He has asked the court to say that the charges are untrue, to give him money for his emotional distress, and to stop her talking about the case.
Garth Brooks also wants the court to give him back the money that he has spent on his lawyers. He has also explained why he revealed the woman’s name. He says that the woman’s lawyer gave away his name to a news channel.
