Attorneys representing plaintiff David Garrison have accused former NBA superstar Shaquille O’Neal of evading legal service in a lawsuit against him and other celebrities over the FTX cryptocurrency scandal. O’Neal is the only celebrity named in the lawsuit, which has yet to be served.

According to Garrison’s lawyers, they have made great efforts to serve O’Neal with the complaint, using four different service companies. However, the basketball legend appears to be hiding from them, drawing out the proceedings or trying to avoid answering the allegations.

Several high-profile celebrities supported the FTX cryptocurrency exchange, including O’Neal, Giselle Bündchen, Tom Brady, Larry David, and Stephen Curry. The lawsuit alleges that the stars promoted FTX to investors without disclosing that they were paid.

The lawsuit seeks damages for Garrison and other investors who lost money due to investing in FTX. While O’Neal’s representatives have not yet commented on the matter, his co-defendants have denied any wrongdoing and expressed confidence in their defense.
As the legal battle over the FTX scandal continues, the absence of Shaquille O’Neal from the proceedings will likely raise further questions about his involvement in the promotion of the cryptocurrency exchange.

In an ironic twist, Shaq, a reserve police officer, has reportedly been hiding from lawyers who have attempted to serve him with court papers. This behavior has caused some to question his commitment to upholding the law.

The FTX scandal has sent shockwaves throughout the investment world, leaving many investors wondering what will happen to their investments. The bankruptcy filing has only added to the confusion and frustration of those who trusted FTX with their money.

While the situation is far from resolved, Edwin Garrison’s lawsuit is one of several attempts to hold those involved accountable for the company’s downfall. As the story unfolds, many wonder what the future holds for FTX and its investors.
