Grammy nominated ‘Hold On’ Gospel Singer James Fortune and his wife have held on long enough after feeling like they were taken advantage of by Houston’s popular Third Ward spot ‘Turkey Leg Hut’ as they are reportedly now suing the owner for a small fortune.
James Fortune and his wife filed a lawsuit this week against Nakia Price owner of Turkey Leg Hut alleging they were defrauded concerning the financial state of Turkey Leg Hut and claims Nakia Price falsely indicated the restaurant was “unencumbered and free of all liabilities” when she sold them partial ownership. According to James Fortune the Fortune’s put over $300k in the business which included buying food to supply the restaurant as well as paying employee salaries and have never been paid back.
When someone takes advantage of my kindness, I just feel bad for that person. I feel bad that they feel the need to step on someone who helped them stand up. –James Fortune
Nikia Price owner of Turkey Leg Hut filed for bankruptcy and declared it had less than $50,000 in assets. Reportedly Turkey Leg Hut is closed because of 35 health code violations that forced the restaurant to shut down last week.
