The retired NFL athlete Michel Oher, who was the subject of 'The Blind Side,' alleges in new court documents that Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy never formally adopted him.
The petition requests that an injunction be issued to prevent the family from using Oher’s name and likeness in addition to seeking a full accounting of their earnings, retroactive share of profits, and compensatory and punitive damages in an unspecified amount.film grossed more than $300 million at the box office and has continued to rack up earnings in home video sales.
Through a separate contract allegedly signed by Oher in 2007, 20th Century Fox Studios was granted the life rights to his story “without any payment whatsoever,” according to the legal filing. The document claims that Oher doesn’t recall signing the paperwork and states that if he did in fact place his name on the contract, the extent of its implications were not explained to him.
