"Pawn Stars" celebrity Rick Harrison is being sued by his mother in a dispute over family assets and ownership of the Las Vegas business featured on the long-running reality TV show, according to court records.
The civil lawsuit was filed Thursday in Nevada state court by attorneys for Harrison’s mother, Joanne Harrison, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported.
It names Rick Harrison, the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop, business entities Harrison Properties, JoRich Properties and others as defendants. "The allegations are false and I think that my 81-year old mother is being manipulated by others for their personal gain," Rick Harrison told the newspaper.
