JUSTICE FOR JULES
By Richard Johnson
JULES Nasso has won another round in his legal battle against former partner Steven Seagal (news), who tried to get Nasso's breach-of-contract suit against him thrown out of court. Staten Island Supreme Court Judge Joseph Maltese ruled for Nasso while taking a swipe at Nasso's lawyer, Robert Hantman. "Although not the most artfully drawn and understandable pleadings ever read by this court, they do make out a meritorious claim if all the allegations are proven true," the judge ruled. Nasso, who produced Seagal's biggest hits, claims the star reneged on a contract to make more movies. It was the second time Seagal tried to get the case tossed.
