Dempsey Says Paper Meant Nothing in Suit Over Earnings
New York April 24. Jack Dempsey testifies that a signed paper meant little and that he never viewed it as a contract. The suit, led by Jack Paris against Dempsey’s earnings, centers on a disputed share of a potential Wills bout and Kearns’s role as manager. Judge Knox dismissed the first claim on the Dempsey Wills bout, narrowing totals to about $524,360. Dempsey recalled signing the paper to keep Doc out of trouble, and urged the court to rely on his lawyers’ figures rather than the contract. Kearns remained silent as Dempsey’s cross examination continued.
