Dobranski had not yet filed a legal response to the claim, as of Aug. 3, according to to online court records. He did however release a statement on Saturday, calling the accusations a tactic to try and bully him.

91裸聊视频淚t91裸聊视频檚 unfortunate that my partner has acted so trivial and petty,91裸聊视频� said Dobranski.

91裸聊视频淎nd turned it into something to simply attack and demonize me when in fact all I91裸聊视频檝e tried to do is be a positive organization in the community and support our players and staff.91裸聊视频�

Dobranski91裸聊视频檚 and Liang91裸聊视频檚 initial agreement91裸聊视频攁s stated in the court documents91裸聊视频攕aid that Liang would have 50 per cent decision-making power over the team91裸聊视频檚 employment of a head coach as a result from the $300,000 investment into the franchise.

Liang91裸聊视频檚 claim states that Dobranski91裸聊视频檚 actions did not allow Liang to exercise her 50 per cent decision making powers in resolving the head coach91裸聊视频檚 employment issues (Grimwood was ultimately fired in January 2019, which has resulted in a different lawsuit with the Warriors), and that that decision could cause turmoil with the BCHL that would directly affect Liang91裸聊视频檚 interests in the Warriors.

In addition, Dobranski replied that Liang had failed to meet her end of their agreement.

91裸聊视频淢y partner has also defaulted on her financial obligations to support this club as agreed, putting 100 [per cent] of the burden on me,91裸聊视频� he said.

91裸聊视频淗er default triggers a forfeit of her ownership. This (lawsuit) is simply to muddy the waters to avoid having to meet her financial obligations and lose her ownership.91裸聊视频�

Dobranski said that this situation will not impact the upcoming Warriors season that debuts in September.

According to the court documents, Dobranski has 21 days to file a legal response with the BC Supreme Court.

None of the allegations have been proven in court.
