Show me the meaning, of being litigious.\n<\/p>\n
Backstreet Boys<\/a> member Brian Littrell is suing a Florida sheriff’s office for allegedly failing to kick public trespassers off his private beach. In a suit filed on June 19 by Littrell’s BLB Beach Hut, LLC and reviewed by Entertainment Weekly, Littrell alleges that the Walton County Sheriff’s Office failed to enforce his private property rights, a duty he’d previously compelled them to fulfill by executing a Trespass Authorization Form, which enables law enforcement to act in property owners’ steads with respect to their property rights.\n<\/p>\n Littrell is now seeking a writ of mandamus, which compels government officials or agencies to execute functions they’ve been legally mandated to perform.\n<\/p>\n EW has reached out to representatives for Littrell and the Walton County Sheriff’s Office for comment.\n<\/p>\n In the suit, Littrell explains that his family have put up “No Trespassing” signs, as well as chairs, tables, and umbrellas in an effort to demarcate the boundaries of their property line as it extends into the Florida waters. But the effort’s been to no avail, as “numerous trespassers have set out to antagonize, bully, and harass the Littrell family.”\n<\/p>\n After hiring private security, the Littrell clan – which includes Brian’s wife of 25 years, Leighanne Wallace, and their son Baylee\u00a0– then began to rely on the Walton County Sheriff’s Office, which Littrell accuses of “refusing to do their duty.”\n<\/p>\n The suit details one alleged instance in which a sheriff’s officer was dispatched to expel a member of the public from Littrell’s property, but was captured on body camera footage telling them he “doesn’t agree with private beaches,” and characterizing Littrell’s behavior as “lunacy.” In another alleged instance, a 911 operator hung up on a BLB employee who called to report a “battery and theft” committed by one individual who refused to leave the beach.\n<\/p>\n Sign up for\u00a0Entertainment Weekly<\/a>‘s free daily newsletter<\/a>\u00a0to get breaking TV news, exclusive first looks, recaps, reviews, interviews with your favorite stars, and more.<\/strong>\n<\/p>\n The lawsuit is seeking judicial involvement in order to compel the sheriff’s office into action. Citing “unprecedented times,” the suit warns that if the Walton County Sheriff’s Office continues to shirk its duties with respect to the Littrell family, “private property and other rights held by Florida citizens will only exist on paper.”\n<\/p>\n Howie Dorough, Brian Littrell, Nick Carter, AJ McLean, and Kevin Richardson perform at Florida’s Jingle Ball in 2022.<\/p>\n Alexander Tamargo\/Getty<\/p>\n Littrell is best known as one of the five core members of the Backstreet Boys. Formed in Orlando in 1993, the group went on to sell over 130 million records, earn two RIAA diamond-certified albums (Backstreet Boys\u00a0and\u00a0Millennium), and become recipients of a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.\n<\/p>\n Following the group’s imperial period in the late 1990s and early 2000s, Littrell segued into releasing solo music as a Christian artist, establish the Brian Littrell Healthy Heart Club, a non-profit aiding children with heart conditions, and help usher his son into the industry that made him a star.\n<\/p>\n In April, Littrell joined his son for a duet<\/a> during his audition for American Idol<\/a>. “Obviously growing up in the industry, a lot of people would look at that as such a perk, but it’s not easy,” Littrell told judges Carrie Underwood<\/a>, Luke Bryan<\/a>, and Lionel Richie<\/a>. “I’ve always told everybody that he’s 10 times more talented than I ever was.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Show me the meaning, of being litigious.
