Kidd Slammed with Grope Suit, But No Charges Yet

Jason Kidd and his million-dollar hands got slapped with a lawsuit by the New York woman who's been alleging that Kidd groped her at a tony Manhattan nightclub.

The woman -- ID'd only as Jane Doe in the suit -- claims in papers that Kidd "battered and assaulted" her on the night of October 10, grabbing her crotch and butt, in addition to verbally threatening her. The allegations had been made in October, but no charges have yet been filed by the Manhattan District Attorney's office. When we called today, the D.A. had no comment. The suit itself seeks unspecified damages.

Kidd's lawyer earlier called the suit "nothing more than a brazen and defamatory search for a payout."

1. his rumored live in girlfriend is pregnant and the girl that is accusing him of grabbing her can be making this story up for money or possibly it did happen. any girl he dates could be rumored to be a gold digger because of what hes worth (which is a lot less after his divorce, also because of all of his negative publicity the basketball star has very few endorsements). The fact is the guy may not like famous women. In order to keep his life private i'm sure he does look for the girl next door type. Sad they are then accused of being "gold diggers".

8. Not surprising. Jason Kidd seems to always get into trouble. Hasn't he always shown a lack of respect for women? The girl sounds like she's trying to get rich off of this, but in my opinion, he seems like the type who would definitely do something like this.

11. "I feel sorry for the guy....First he had to contend with his CRAZY ex-wife, Joumana for all those years and now this! Can't the guy catch a break??"

Yeah. The poor guy. Never mind about the alleged sexual assault on her person. I guess that's all the 'break' he'll catch, apart from her lawsuit, which she'll win if there are witnesses or clear evidence to support.

15. Jason, you could slap my cell phone away and aggresively grope me and I wouldn't complain. Always thought you were hot in a domestic abuse sort of way.
