Ippei's gonna need to hold this one too :wow:

This is nothing. Ohtani wanted a house in Hawaii. Apparently the developers were using his image, his dog and his wife to lure other rich ppl to buy in. Thats when Ohtani backed out of the deal.

You literally made that up, because thats not in the article. LOL
Stop making up shyt just read the document.

They signed Ohtani for the deal, he signed everything is good.
Then Ohtani's agent started calling another partner and wanting more and more benefits from the deal.
Then eventually Ohtani's agent went to another large backer and told them to fire the two guys if they wanted Ohtani's support.
The other financial backer told the two realtors making the claim they are being fired due to Ohtani's agent not wanting them involved.
Those are the claim of the lawsuit.

I've seen no other article making that claim. Can you post it?
Every article is build on the lawsuit by the two guys who got pushed out and its all the same.
Ohtani's agent used his influence with the major financiers to kick them out.

What they're saying:


The lawsuit claims that Balelo and Ohtani "exploited their celebrity leverage to destabilize and ultimately dismantle Plaintiffs’ role in the project — for no reason other than their own financial self-interest."


It also states, "This case is about abuse of power. Defendants used threats and baseless legal claims to force a business partner to betray its contractual obligations and strip Plaintiffs of the very project they conceived and built."


According to the suit, Balelo "quickly became a disruptive force," threatening to pull Ohtani from the deal if concessions weren't made.

The lawsuit further alleges that Kingsbarn fired the plaintiffs in a "coordinated ambush" and "openly admitted during the call that Balelo had demanded the terminations and that they were being done solely to placate him."


Hayes and Matsumoto claim they "stand to lose millions of dollars in compensation tied to projected homebuilding profit, construction management fees, and broker commissions."

It was believed Ohtani's attachment would help the developers sell properties. The brochure also teased that Ohtani would "spend significant time at The Vista in the offseason" and that he would "construct a small hitting and pitching facility" on the premises, per the Associated Press.
But Hayes and Matsumoto alleged that Balelo started making "threats and baseless legal claims" to push the two out of the deal. They accused Balelo and Ohtani of "abuse of power," adding that Balelo "became a disruptive force" after the deal was signed.

Balelo reportedly made demands of Kingsbarn Realty Capital, one of the partners involved in the deal. The lawsuit accused Kingsbarn of "capitulating to Balelo’s every whim" so it wouldn't lose Ohtani's endorsement. Eventually, Balelo was accused of engaging in "a coordinated ambush" to get Hayes and Matsumoto fired.

The lawsuit claimed Kingsbarn admitted Balelo demanded Hayes and Matsumoto be removed from the deal, per the AP.

“Kingsbarn openly admitted during the call that Balelo had demanded the terminations and that they were being done solely to placate him,” the suit said. “Plaintiffs stand to lose millions of dollars in compensation tied to projected homebuilding profit, construction management fees, and broker commissions.”
