According to the lawsuit -- filed in April last year -- Jacob Sheppard collided with Stefano's car in King County, Washington.
Sheppard admitted to drinking beers and doing shots before the accident -- which left Stefano with two broken arms, a fractured pelvis, and other serious injuries. Sheppard was charged with two counts of vehicular assault and served more than a year behind bars.
