Ryan O'Neal Faces The Judge In Battle With Son Griffin


O'Neal in court


A fight between US actor Ryan O'Neal and his son Griffin involving gunfire and a fireplace poker and leading to the actor's arrest last weekend, turned into a war of words between their lawyers today.

Griffin O'Neal, 42, and his pregnant girlfriend, Joanna Berry, who had bandages around a bruised and swollen left eye, appeared but did not speak at a press conference by lawyer Gloria Allred.

"We vigorously reject any assertion that the injuries suffered by Joanna and Griffin were as a result of Ryan O'Neal's acting in self-defence," Allred said.


Lawyers Point Fingers in O'Neal Fight


LOS ANGELES (AP) - A battle between Ryan O'Neal and his son Griffin that led to the actor's arrest at his Malibu home last weekend turned into a war of words in law offices Wednesday as their attorneys each charged that the other side was responsible for the fight in which a fireplace poker was swung and a gun fired.

Griffin O'Neal, 42, and his pregnant girlfriend, Joanna Berry, who had bandages around a bruised and swollen left eye, appeared but did not speak at a press conference by attorney Gloria Allred.

``We vigorously reject any assertion that the injuries suffered by Joanna and Griffin were as a result of Ryan O'Neal's acting in self defense,'' Allred said in a prepared statement.
