Nancy Cartwright -- the voice of Bart Simpson -- is a defendant in a lawsuit involving her fiance's suicide, a failed construction project, and the Church of Scientology ... this according to documents obtained by TMZ.
In the suit, the American Safety Casualty Insurance Company claims a construction company run by Stephen Brackett -- Nancy's fiance at the time -- was hired to fix up a restaurant in 2008. ASCIC issued an insurance policy to Brackett to cover the work ... and Nancy agreed to cover ASCIC's costs if anything went wrong.

ASCIC claims Brackett only did a portion of the work and "diverted contract funds" to the Church of Scientology, in which both he and Nancy were members. ASCIC says that when the project was halfway done, Brackett committed suicide and his company folded.

ASCIC claims it had to fork over roughly $260,000 to complete the project ... and that Nancy is refusing to cover the expenses, as promised.

ASCIC is suing her for the 260k plus a whole lot more.

So enlightening to see the facts about what happened. Steve's death is so sad. I can just imagine the pressure he was under and the enormity of guilt he must have felt when he realized his poor choice. I hope CoS and Nancy get everything they deserve out of this. This is scientology in a nutshell: Greed

Nancy better lawyer up. Kendrick Moxon must feel like like the proverbial Dutch boy trying to stop all the leaks in the Truman show dam. Can't wait to see the discovery.:drama:

Pricey cult membership

If everyone everywhere knew that the church of scientology costs each "parishioner" anywhere from $300,000 to $ 2,000,000 dollars over a lifetime then it would not be so unbelievable when news of huge embezzlement, money diversion and laundering hit the headlines. :no:

Of course, some don't ever have to pay a penny to the "church". They are fortunate enough to give up everything they own and then some along with their dental and physical health, by joining "staff" or the "sea org". Working 50 to 90 hours a week for a nickle an hour is a fair trade-off when one is unfortunate enough to be a scientologist and not be rich. :confused2:

Get out the popcorn: The insurance company is suing her directly while the trustee of Brackett Construction Co Chapter 7 bankruptcy is most likely going to file an adversary complaint against Church of Scientology for fraudulent transfer of monies (the donations) which rightfully belong to the company. Either way, Cartwright or Church of Scientology will have to pay on this one. It might well pit CoS against Cartwright, with CoS saying " Get it from Cartwright", lol

In this list of cases, there are examples of adversary cases against scientologists for similar fraudulent transfers where CoS had to repay donations to the trustee:

The bankruptcy trustee may have a good case. If ASCIC paid $260,000 up front to have work done, Brackett should only have used those funds to complete the project he was contracted to perform.

It may turn out that Co$ has to return the money, and then goes after Nancy (who might not have the money). This might be the last straw for Nancy.

This *is* good news. And, yeah, as Enthan suggests, has Nancy actually got any money left? After all the dosh she's handed over I wouldn't be in the least surprised if she's near to skint.

Hopefully, as the inevitable shit fight ensues, won't be long now before her Scientology fugue clears - wouldn't be great to have her on side? The only downside I can see is if she ends up over at MartyLand.

Yeah

Yeah, I hope this creates a big stink around sci/co$. BUT - I have my suspicions as to why JT did not pursue the case against his blackmailers. He'd already been to court, and testified that Jett had epilepsy. I think coS/sci/dm got in his stuff for that. He had to END the bad PR - so he got a very smart lawyer to clinch a deal with all involved, money for silence . . .

If NC has any $$ left, the co$ will pressure her to shut this down ASAP (pay off the insurance co). If she has no money left - well, that's left to be seen . . . I am sure she gets paid everytime The Simpsons airs. I think she has the promise of future monies. This will go away super fast.

Yea for TMZ - brazen little bastards, hey :)

Why did an insurance company ask an actress to insure them??

That is a good question. As I understand it, Brackett construction entered into a contract with a third party to construct a restaurant-Off Vine Restaurant. That third party would have required a completion bond from the contractor (Brackett Construction) to ensure not only the completion of the project but also payment for any subcontractors who would have a lien on the property for any unpaid work. The two insurance companies entered into a contract with Brackett construction to guarantee that the construction company would fulfill its obligations to Off Vine Restaurant. The contract protects only Off Vine Restaurant-and does not relieve the contractor from its obligations. The insurance company may, under the terms of its contract, seek reimbursement from the contractor for any monies it becomes obligated to pay.

Because of this, the insurance company may require some form of security for undertaking this risk. This could include personal guarantees from the officers of a corporation, mortgages or liens on any property owned by the corporations or its officers. In this case, it accepted a guarantee from Cartwright-an individual with substantial assets. I suspect that is what happened in this case.

OK, here's my understanding of what happened. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

This lawsuit alleges that:

The voice of Bart Simpson, Nancy Cartwright, had a fiance who owned a construction company.

He was paid money to do work on a restaurant called "Off Vine Restaurant", and instead of getting the work done with the money he was paid, he paid it to the Church of Scientology for his "Bridge to Total Freedom" instead.

Then he committed suicide.

Nancy Cartwright, the voice of Bart Simpson, was the legal backer for her fiance's business. The insurance company they hired to take care of things if anything went wrong had to pay almost $300,000 to complete the job that Nancy's fiance was responsible to complete.

So the insurance company is suing both Nancy Cartwright and the Church of Scientology for the expenses they had to pay because the diversion of funds to the Church of Scientology - instead of paying for the construction project - was fraudulent and not covered by the insurance policy their construction company owned.

So this is yet another example of the fraud and abuse that goes on in Scientology's never-ending quest to suck up everything of value that they can out of anyone they can in order to enrich themselves by dangling "spiritual freedom" in front of them.

And it happened in yet another very tragic way to sincere people who needed Scientology to give them real help and not fake help, and then cast them aside like used rags once they got what they wanted out of them.

I hope this makes worldwide news. Not because I hold any ill will against Nancy Cartwright, but because the Church of Scientology needs to be exposed for what they are - and for the world to see.

And all legal means need to be used to stop them from being able to do this to anyone else, once and for all.

Didn't you know, Terril, insurance companies never lose. They spread the risk across the portfolio far and wide, bringing in guarantees so that those areas of the business that do well, support those they struggle. Bloody socialists, the lot of 'em. : )

If they considered the guy had no track record at that size of job, then they would say pal we won't issue the (required by the state licensing commission) bond unless you can find someone to guarantee it..so he did..nancy

Ive had to get bonded before and was given the run around but got it cause Id been in the AV business for 25 years already.

Talk about Karma in action, the cult is just ‘pulling in’ one kick to the goolies after another.

These things normally take a long time to get to court, but I hope it generates a lot of bad publicity for the cult. And hopefully it will be given extra attention when Rex Fowler goes on trial and it is revealed why he tried to commit suicide after diverting money from his business to the Church of Scientology (hmmm, seems to be a theme developing here).

And finally, some of these thick-headed but wealthy celebs might get it into their heads that being associated with Scientology can be very bad news for one’s personal wellbeing and sanity.
