Joe Exotic has struck a small victory in his $89 million (£70.4 million) lawsuit against false arrest. The Tiger King star is serving 22 years in prison for plotting to murder his nemesis, Big Cat Rescue owner Carole Baskin.
Joe, whose real name is Joseph Maldonado-Passage, had filed a lawsuit against his arrest and according to E! News, court documents have shown that he has been granted an extension to file an objection in the civil case.
The former owner of The Greater Wynnewood Exotic Animal Park wrote a handwritten letter to the judge from the Texas prison he had been moved to for quarantine measures due to the coronavirus pandemic.
