Looks like Kris Humphries is about to match his time spent in court with the time he spends on the basketball court.
The 28-year-old Brooklyn Nets star is being sued by a suit shop in Beverly Hills, whose designer is seeking over $50,000 in damages, reports TMZ.
According to the lawsuit, Humphries struck a deal with suit designer Scott Hill: He'll bring around two of his NBA player friends, and in return he'll receive a 30 percent discount.
Humphries agreed and proceeded to purchase $46,000 worth of clothes. According to Hill, Humphries never held up his end of the deal and never brought any of his friends around.

The hits just keep on coming for Kris Humphries.
The Brooklyn Nets star, who's still in the midst of his divorce battle with estranged wife Kim Kardashian, has been smacked with a lawsuit by Scott Hill, who claims Humprhies swindled a Beverly Hills suit shop out of thousands of dollars in designer clothing.
According to TMZ, the lawsuit says that Hill was approached by Humphries and Kardashian a few years ago in hopes that he would provide the NBA star with clothes.

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences brings you the Oscars (yep, that's why they're called Academy Awards), and on Friday, the organization announced that it was prepared to invite 176 new folks to its fold.
In a list posted on its website, the Academy deemed Matthew McConaughey, Jean Dujardin, Terrence Malick, Jonah Hill, Berenice Bejo, Jessica Chastain, Octavia Spencer and a host of other film luminaries worthy of inclusion in its nearly 6,000-member army.
The Academy has drawn the ire of critics who bemoan its overwhelmingly male, white population. A Los Angeles Times investigation found that of all Academy members, 94 percent are Caucasian and 77 percent are male. A mere 2 percent are black, with Latinos constituting an even smaller portion. Only 14 percent of members are under the age of 50.
Full members of the Academy select and vote on Oscars nominees. The organization was started in 1927 and is now governed by a 43-person board.

As my friend Pam Grossman put it, "Yes, universe, I know. I know too well that time passes and we are all going to die, sooner or hopefully later. I also know that cancer sucks. You do not need to drive these points home by killing off musicians I love every other day." This was prompted by the passing of Robin Gibb just after we lost Donna Summer and several other greats. Meanwhile, my friend Davie Kaufman, the biggest Flying Burrito Brothers fan I know, was disappointed that I hadn't yet marked the passing of Chris Ethridge, an original member of the Burritos, also taken from us by cancer.
Chris Ethridge was born in Mississippi in 1947 and moved to California when he was 17. In 1967 he joined Gram Parsons in the International Submarine Band in time to play bass on the group's only LP, Safe at Home. Though its release was delayed,...
