The federal judge presiding over the misconduct case involving Michael Irvin is now giving Marriott a deadline to provide the video allegedly showing what happened between Irvin and his accuser, who is a female employee.
Michael Gehlken of the Dallas Morning News reported that Marriott has until 5 p.m. CT Tuesday to respond to Irvin’s request for the video. The judge also ordered the name of Irvin’s accuser must be provided, as well as anyone else who filed a complaint against the former wide receiver.
Irvin’s attorney, Levi McCathern, has already stated to be “mad as hell” over Marriott’s refusal to provide the surveillance video.
“I’m mad as hell that they’re hiding this stuff that is so relevant to my client’s livelihood,” McCathern said. “I think it is terrible they’re doing that. I don’t know what’s on the video. None of us have gotten to see it. But I sure think that, at a minimum, Michael has got a right to see the video.”
The alleged encounter between Irvin and the woman occurred during Super Bowl week. NFL Network immediately took him off of interviews and coverage of the big game.
Irvin has filed a $100 million lawsuit against his accuser.
Amos L. Mazzant III is the judge in Irvin’s case. He is most known as being appointed by President Barack Obama and has handled other NFL-related cases.
