Allen Iverson is being sued for $2.5 million by a man who claims he was beaten by Iverson's bodyguard.

The man wants to look at Iverson's financial and criminal records, amongst other personal information.

Guy Walker Jr. claims he was assaulted in April 2009 by one of Iverson's security guards at the South Beach Pizza Bar nightclub inside the Fisher Building. 

"Whether Mr. Iverson purchased pancakes at IHOP that morning or on the following morning has no bearing on any issues in this case," Detroit lawyer Michael Cafferty wrote in a document filed Monday in U.S. District Court in Detroit.
