Oher has been talking shite on the movie since it came out.


He should.

The actor portrayed him just above mental retardation.

It sounds like Oher's attorney has already verified everything.
Of course, attorneys can lie to the media to get sympathy. But my guess is that the Tuohy's are fricked.

If I had to guess the Tuohys have nothing to do with how Oher was portrayed.

The movie mightve missed its mark trying to depict a gentle but uneducated giant instead of Radio.

The SOL on fraud, which is essentially what he's alleging, starts to toll when the person defrauded knew or should have known of the fraud. That's going to be a tough road to hoe for something that happened almost 20 years ago, which is when this "conservatorship" was entered into. It's more likely that Oher is SOL even if his claim does have merit than the Tuohys being fricked.

Also, as an aside, the Touhys were already rich before that movie ever came to pass. They made all their money in real estate and taco bell franchises, not from the movie

Oher admits he signed the conservatorship himself. He is alleging that he didn’t know what he was signing. Which if the Tuoys come back and say “yes he did. He wanted us to handle any business dealings so he could focus on school and football” then he has no case.

The thing that’s not on his side is this is starting 20 years after the events and 14 years after the movie came out. I’m not saying this is what it is, but it smells like a cash grab.

ETA: the Tuoys are shady. Don’t get me wrong. But Michael is high if he thinks he has a case when he has admitted multiple times he signed the document and it was explained to him what it was. And now he’s back tracking

On what legal basis, and what is the statute of limitations on those allegations?
