Dean Spanos Sued By His Sister
The ongoing legal battle over the management of the Los Angeles Chargers has taken a new turn.
The team’s owner, Dean Spanos, is now facing a lawsuit filed by his sister, Dea Spanos Berberian.
The suit alleges “misogynistic” behavior, “self-dealing,” and repeated “breaches of fiduciary duty.”
Berberian’s lawyers want to acquire sole control of a family trust that constitutes more than one-third of the team’s ownership.
Furthermore, the lawsuit seeks to suspend and supplant Spanos as a co-trustee while also looking to recover any unstated fiscal damages awarded to Berberian.
Also, according to the lawsuit, Berberian accuses her brothers, Dean and Michael Spanos, of:
“Repeatedly acting out of their deeply-held misogynistic attitudes and sense of entitlement as the men in the family… and to rationalize their pitiable behavior which she believes is intended to teach her that a woman has no rights, no matter what any trust instrument might say.”
