Southern Charm star Craig Conover finally passed the bar exam–and it looks like he might need to call on his legal expertise!
The devilishly handsome Conover has been named in a lawsuit stemming from a collision that happened three years ago in downtown Charleston, South Carolina.
Police records reveal that on the evening of April 28, 2014, Conover backed his Mercury Milan out of a driveway and struck cyclist Corey Hamilton. The report indicated that Conover had stopped and used his horn to bring attention to himself, and that he was unable to see Hamilton. In addition, the report states that Hamilton was wearing dark clothing and riding his bicycle with no illumination.
The Island Packet reports that the suit, which was filed on April 27, 2017, contends that “Defendant Conover owed the Plaintiff a duty of care to operate his vehicle in a safe and prudent manner….Plaintiff has suffered injuries that have caused, and may in the future cause, Plaintiff to incur one of more of the following elements of damage: a. physical pain; b. suffering; c. loss of enjoyment of life; and d. medical expenses.”
The damages that Hamilton is seeking is unknown. However, in order to file in this particular court, the request has to be a minimum of $7,500.
