Former NFL star Antonio Brown has been ordered to pay over $1 million to a high-profile jeweler after failing to respond to a lawsuit. The diamond expert, Shuki International, filed the lawsuit last year, alleging that Brown borrowed several valuable items in 2022 but never returned them or paid for them.

Unreturned Jewelry Sparks Lawsuit

• Shuki International, a renowned jeweler for celebrities like Floyd Mayweather, sued Antonio Brown for failing to return or pay for borrowed jewelry.
• The items included diamond fingers, a rose gold black diamond piece, a white gold chain, and a ring.
• Despite the lawsuit, Brown did not respond, leading to a default judgment in favor of the jeweler.

Shuki International claimed that he provided Brown with a pair of his “Shuki International” diamond fingers, each valued at $500,000, with the expectation of their return or payment. Additionally, other pieces were also lent to Brown with the same understanding.

Default Judgment Issued

After Antonio Brown failed to respond to the lawsuit, a judge issued a default judgment in favor of Shuki International, ordering Brown to pay $1,095,000 for the unreturned jewelry.

Disappointment and Unreturned Calls

• Shuki International expressed disappointment over the situation, especially since he and Brown were previously close.
• Efforts to reach out to Brown regarding the judgment were unsuccessful, with the former NFL player not returning calls.

Despite the legal battle, Brown was recently spotted in Los Angeles with one of Shuki’s diamond fingers, showcasing it to the public. Requests for comments from Brown’s representative have not been answered at the time of reporting.
