Nicolas Cage's Son Weston Slams Mom As 'Negligent' In Move To Get Case Tossed

The star actor’s son came out to expose all the allegations of mother abuse, Christina Fultonlevelled against him and dismissed it as untrue.

Nicholas Cage and Weston Coppola Cage were dragged into court by Christina Fulton over a physical attack that took place in a Weston apartment in Los Angeles last April.

Weston publicly responded to his mother’s lawsuit, where he accused him of assaulting him and seriously injured. According to court documents, Weston has firmly denied all allegations against him.

His lawyers argue that the injuries or damages Christina allegedly was caused primarily by her negligence and behavior, suggesting that her role in the case should significantly reduce her compensation.

Furthermore, Weston’s lawyers said Christina should not be able to pursue her claims against Weston due to illegal conduct and should evoke the doctrine of dirty hands.

In Touch, the musician shared that he is currently attempting to dismiss the lawsuit entirely, emphasizing that Christina’s actions relating to the situation should prevent her from claiming damages or other relief.

On February 18, Christina launched a lawsuit against Weston and Nicholas, claiming that Weston not only committed attacks and batteries, but also committed a deliberate infringement of emotional distress. She allegedly claimed that the attack took place on April 28, 2024 at his apartment in downtown Los Angeles.

Christina reported suffering injuries that require extensive medical care and treatment. She further argued that her son’s actions had caused significant losses to important business transactions.

The lawsuit also argued that she shared responsibility for naming her former partner the accused and claiming that he made it possible for her son Weston to act.

In her complaints, she detailed Weston’s nasty history. This includes patterns of mental health issues and violent behavior.

Christina accused Nicholas of knowing Weston’s past but failing to intervene and prevent further violence. Instead, she argues that Nicholas acted in favor of Weston’s criminal conduct.

Christina continues to pamper their son even more by helping him on bail and drinking with him frequently, despite Nicholas knowing about his substance abuse issues and violent behavior.

The lawsuit emphasized that Nicholas was aware or should have known the serious risks posed by his son’s history of documented violence and mental instability.

In response, Nicholas’ attorney explained Christina’s decision to sue her son not to be surprised, pointing out the history of the lawsuit against his family.

The lawyers characterized the case as a potential attempt at financial interests and attention, noting that Christina notified LAPD that her son was experiencing a mental health crisis during the incident in question. The legal team ensured that Christina would address the issue in court.

Christina eventually dropped Nicholas’ name from the lawsuit. As The Blast noted, Christina’s latest claim means that Nicholas has no cheating, as Nicholas has previously identified in his submission.

Nicholas is able to leave the free man, but Weston remains an active defendant in the lawsuit. Christina’s lawyers demanded that the claim against Nicholas be rejected with bias, preventing Christina from further pursuing.

Nicholas’ attorneys stressed the allegations as “absurd and frivolous” by highlighting that Weston, 34, is responsible for his actions. As a result, Nicholas should not be held responsible for alleged attacks on Weston’s mother.

Christina openly reflected the shattering pain she has endured over the past few months following allegations of assault by her son. In grief, she focused on her experiences as a mother who had just suffered from abuse.

She further expressed her dissatisfaction with the LAPD and held her accountable for their inaction when she needed her most. Recalling the tragic moments after the alleged assault, she emphasized the emotional toll of the feelings abandoned during her injuries.

Despite the severity of her situation, Christina emphasized that her motivation stemmed from love and that she declared, “I am here again as a mother. I love my son, tough love.”

Furthermore, Christina argued that there was no argument between her and her son. Instead, she reveals that he is experiencing mental health issues and that she is trying to get the help he needs.

The plot of Nicholas Cage’s family drama continues to get thicker.
