Richard Dreyfuss Sues Dad

Actor Richard Dreyfuss’ colorful life – three wives, a kicked cocaine habit, and a diagnosis of bipolar disorder – has hit another snag. According to The Independent, the Jaws and W actor is suing his father and uncle for $4 million in repayments, interest fees, and damages. The fracas is over $870,000 he advanced to his family in 1984 to help with a 12-story office building in downtown LA. Dreyfuss alleges that his father and uncle refused to turn over accounting records that would show whether he deserved a return on the investment. Dreyfuss has been estranged from his father ever since his mother died from a stroke in 2000.
