Viacom: Sumner Redstone Health Care Lawsuit Back On

Deadline: The Sumner Redstone health care lawsuit looked all but settled, but now it is distinctly back on and lawyers for the media mogul’s former companion want the ex-Viacom chief to be ordered to give a deposition by April 18. And new correspondence suggests Redstone’s mental capacity may have been in question since April 2015. “Throughout this litigation, counsel have used Redstone’s health as both a sword and a shield.”
