MONTREAL (AP) — Arturo Gatti’s widow can no longer be questioned about the night before he died.
Justice Claudine Roy agreed Friday with the lawyer for Amanda Rodrigues, who argued the events of that night are not relevant to the ongoing civil trial dealing with the late boxer’s estate.
Rodrigues and the Gatti family are disputing who should get the estimated $3.4 million in Gatti’s estate.
On Thursday, Rodrigues testified that a drunken Gatti hit her in public and she fell to the ground just hours before he died in a Brazilian resort in 2009.
