Kick streamer Jack Doherty and his bodyguard are being sued by Corinna Kopf’s friend, Chase Gardella, for an assault that happened at a Halloween party.
Infamous Kick star Jack Doherty went viral back in October after a Halloween party turned violent when his bodyguard punched a man live on stream.
The event, hosted by YouTuber David Dobrik, even had Snoop Dogg providing entertainment – but all anyone could talk about after the party was Doherty’s bodyguard landing a massive punch on one of the attendees.
According to TMZ, the man, identified as Chase Gardella, is taking legal action against the duo and has filed a lawsuit against the streamer and his muscle.

Gardella insists that he never agreed to the fight and suffered head, neck, and face injuries when he fell as a result of the powerful punch. He is suing for assault, battery, negligence, and emotional distress, but the amount he’s suing for is unknown at this time.
“This was a disgusting, unprovoked assault on a young man by a professional boxer at the direction of his social media influencer employer,” Chase’s attorney said. “Chase was minding his own business, enjoying a fun Halloween Party with friends when he was brutally attacked by a man several times larger than him.”
Corinna Kopf responded to news of the lawsuit with a simple laughing emoji, while Jack has denied any wrongdoing.
“Come on now, we all know I don’t got the ability to beat someone up,” he said in a post on X.
The news comes just days after Jack Doherty found himself going viral after an OnlyFans video of the streamer and his girlfriend was leaked across social media.
