Viacom-CBS’s Sumner Redstone Wins Hold on Lawsuit

Bloomberg: Sumner Redstone can’t be questioned by lawyers for his ex-girlfriend before a judge has ruled on the media billionaire’s request to throw out her lawsuit alleging he isn’t mentally capable of making his own health-care decisions.  A California Superior Court judge said that he didn’t think the case was urgent simply because Redstone is 92 years old. Klein said the request by Pierce O’Donnell, a lawyer for Manuela Herzer, to take a videotaped deposition of Redstone was premature until the case has survived the request to dismiss it.
