Former MARILYN MANSON Bandmate Will Not Receive Access To Documents

September 11, 2008

KNBC.com reports that a former bandmate who filed a breach of contract lawsuit against Marilyn Manson will not get access to any of the goth rocker's past tax returns, a judge ruled Wednesday.

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Michael L. Stern said he was not persuaded by arguments in ex-Manson keyboardist Stephen Bier's court papers to order the defendant to produce what are traditionally confidential documents.

Bier, better known by the stage name Madonna Wayne Gacy, sued Manson in August 2007, seeking more than $20 million. The musician alleges Manson used money from their former band partnership to buy items ranging from Nazi paraphernalia to a $150,000 engagement ring for ex-wife Dita Von Teese, depriving him of his partnership share.
