Joe Francis Ordered To Pay Jayde Nicole $30K

Girls Gone Wild founder Joe Francis has been ordered to pay thousands of dollars in legal fees incurred by Jayde Nicole, the Playboy hottie he attacked at a West Hollywood nightclub last summer, Radar Online has exclusively learned.

As Radar Online has previously reported, Francis was caught on security video pulling Nicole's hair at Guys and Dolls nightclub last August after Nicole spilled a drink on him. The attack was so violent, Nicole fell to the ground.

Following the incident, Nicole filed a million dollar lawsuit against Francis; he then counter-sued her as well.

Tuesday morning, a judge in Los Angeles ruled that Francis must pay Nicole almost $30,000 in legal fees she has incurred.

Nicole's powerhouse attorney, Ronald Richards, tells RadarOnline.com exclusively, "Today Joe Francis will owe Jayde Nicole a minimum of at least $31,000 pending a final ruling in attorneys' fees for filing a cross complaint that infringed upon her free speech rights. He never appealed the dismissal by the court, and that judgment is final. He won't be able to spin that any other way."

No charges were ever filed against Francis for the incident in which Nicole suffered a black eye, swollen face, among other injuries she claimed in her lawsuit against Francis.

Nicole's civil lawsuit against Francis is scheduled to go to trial this December.

Heidi Montag Alleges Assault From Hills Creator!

Multiple sources close to Heidi Montag reveal exclusively to PerezHilton.com that the reality star is alleging that since her multiple cosmetic procedures she has been touched inappropriately on her "ass cheeks and lower back" by the creator and executive producer of The Hills, Adam Divello.

"Tension on the set of The Hills has truly escalated in the last few weeks and Spencer and Heidi are very close to bringing legal action against the show," an insider tells me.

A Montag source says, "Adam can get away with that with the Audrinas and Kristins but not with Heidi! He is a pervert and a creep. The other girls dont feel they can't defend themselves because they are afraid they will lose their job. Heidi will not tolerate sexual assault in the workplace!"

Lauren "Lo" Bosworth just released the following message via Twitter: "I'll repeat it: no one is/has ever been assaulted during filming of our show. hey spiedi, do you know the definition of slander? NOT OKAY."

Kristin Cavallari said "Well well. Interesting news this morning..."  Not sure whether she was referring to the same news, but there is a good chance.

Whenever I think Speidi can't get any lower in life, they suprise me. Can you say ''copycat offender''? Just because Nicolette Sheridan is making claims and you notice that she's getting publicity for it doesn't mean it will work with you, Heidi. Ms. Sheridan is a respected actress.
