Filed Under Celebrity Blunders, Gossips by Skoopz

leonardo dicaprioLeonardo DiCaprio was sued by his neighbor claiming the actor excavated the neighboring property without permission and damaged plants and hedges to build a basketball court at his home.

Ronald and Joan Linclau filed legal papers last week citing the construction weakened a hillside and left their deck and pool in danger of collapse. They are seeking at least $250,000 in damages.

DiCaprio “failed to exercise ordinary care … in making the excavations and failed to take reasonable precautions to sustain the adjoining land … in its natural state,” the suit claimed.

DiCaprio’s spokesman, Ken Sunshine, said the lawsuit “is totally without merit.”

The lawsuit claimed DiCaprio ignored warnings that he was trespassing on the property, located in the hills above Sunset Boulevard.
