Joey King Faces Trial Over Car Crash Lawsuit in February 2025

Actress Joey King, 25, is set to face a jury trial in February 2025 over a lawsuit stemming from a 2020 car accident. Parviz Mohammady filed the suit in November 2022, alleging Joey’s negligence caused the Los Angeles collision, leading to significant injuries, including a total shoulder replacement. Joey has denied any wrongdoing, claiming Parviz’s own actions contributed to the crash.

Court documents reveal ongoing disputes over evidence, with Joey seeking to reference Parviz’s prior and subsequent accidents to challenge his injury claims. Parviz’s legal team argues this evidence is irrelevant and could mislead the jury.

In a prior arbitration between insurance companies, Joey was reportedly found 80% liable, with damages estimated at $500,000. However, her lawyer clarified this figure represented insurance policy limits and not an actual payout, with property damage assessed under $12,000. The court rejected Parviz’s petition to enforce the arbitration award, setting the stage for trial on February 7, 2025.

Both parties remain at odds, with Joey seeking dismissal of the suit and Parviz pursuing unspecified damages.
