The Amended Manzo Complaint: Caroline v. Bravo Gets Messier

Since we're all suffering from RHONJ withdrawals this year, we’re turning our attention to updates in Caroline Manzo's lawsuit against Bravo. Since we last discussed this case, Caroline has amended her complaint, drawing unexpected legal parallels to Leah McSweeney’s case. We break down the original and updated filings, Bravo’s motion to dismiss, and the tricky jurisdictional and first amendment issues Caroline is facing.


What’s on the docket?

  • Key differences between Caroline Manzo’s original complaint and the amended version
  • Revisiting the details of Glanville's alleged sexual assault in Morocco
  • The jurisdiction issue — whether New York courts can hear the case
  • Highlights from Bravo’s motion to dismiss and why it may hold weight
  • Executive Producer Lisa Shannon’s declaration and her account of the incident
  • Plus how Bravo submitted the raw footage of the incidents to the Court
