Doctor files complaint denying any wrongdoing in treatment of Janel Grant

A new update is available regarding Janel Grant’s petition for her medical records from Peak Wellness and her lawsuit against Vince McMahon, WWE, and John Laurinitis.

Grant recently filed a petition in a Connecticut court to obtain medical records related to her treatment at Peak Wellness with Dr. Carlon Colker, which she alleges were arranged by McMahon.

Attorneys for Colker and Peak Wellness have since filed an official complaint in response to Grant’s petition, alleging that it is part of a “smear campaign” related to her lawsuit against McMahon, WWE, and Laurinaitis.

“Grant is engaging in a smear campaign against (Colker and Peak Wellness) in order to bolster her well-publicized allegations concerning alleged sex trafficking and sexual assault,” the complaint reads.

The complaint also asks that Grant “provide information concerning her activities in intentionally fostering patent lies and material misstatements” related to her treatment at the clinic and that this information could potentially be used in legal action against her.

“Plaintiffs believe that this information shall provide ample basis for claims by Plaintiffs against Grant for, among other things, defamation, tortious interference with business relations, and negligent and intentional infliction of emotional distress on Dr. Colker.”

The complaint continues to deny any wrongdoing concerning Grant’s treatment.

“Grant’s claim that Dr. Colker or any of the staff at Peak Wellness ever intentionally withheld any information from her regarding her care is recklessly and harmfully false. Grant’s suggestion that Dr. Colker or any of the staff at Peak Wellness ever surreptitiously avoided and/or refused to explain any of the substances, dosages, or purpose of the vitamins Grant was provided, is recklessly and harmfully false. Grant’s claim that Dr. Colker gave her “pushback” simply because she inquired as to the specifics of what vitamins she was provided, is recklessly and harmfully false. Grant’s suggestion that Dr. Colker or any of the staff at Peak Wellness ever surreptitiously avoided and/or refused to explain any of the substances, dosages, or purpose of the IV fluids Ms. Grant was provided, is recklessly and harmfully false.”

The full complaint is available here. Key parts are highlighted below:

“The Plaintiffs, Carlon M. Colker, M.D. and Peak Wellness, Inc. bring this Verified Complaint for a Bill of Discovery to compel the defendant Janel Grant to provide information concerning her activities in intentionally fostering patent lies and material misstatements concerning her interactions with and treatment by Plaintiffs. Plaintiffs believe that this information shall provide ample basis for claims by Plaintiffs against Grant for, among other things, defamation, tortious interference with business relations, and negligent and intentional infliction of emotional distress on Dr. Colker.”

“Upon information and belief, Grant is engaging in a smear campaign against Plaintiffs in order to bolster her well-publicized allegations concerning alleged sex trafficking and sexual assault by World Wrestling Entertainment, Inc. n/k/a World Wrestling Entertainment, LLC (“WWE), Vincent K. McMahon (“McMahon”) and John Laurinaitis (“Laurinaitis”).”

“Dr. Colker and Peak are not named as defendants in the Grant v. WWE Federal Action; Grant has asserted no allegations of wrongdoing against Dr. Colker and Peak in the Grant v. WWE Federal Action despite referencing her alleged treatment by a ‘Celebrity Doctor’ and ‘Alternative Clinic’ in the WWE Federal Action Complaint.”

“In sum, Grant’s claim that Dr. Colker and the staff at Peak Wellness might have ever in any way been involved as “…civil conspirators in her pending claims against McMahon and the WWE”, to further imply that Dr. Colker and the staff at Peak Wellness would or could have ever engaged in “…falsifying medical records, Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (“RICO”) violations, RICO conspiracy, assault, battery, and/or breaches of fiduciary against Ms. Grant,” and that Dr. Colker and the staff at Peak Wellness ever may have had anything whatsoever to do with the injurious fabrication of “…..civil conspiracy, aiding and abetting, fraud, assault, battery, RICO, RICO conspiracy, and/or breach of fiduciary duty…” is recklessly and harmfully false, and has proved damaging in the extreme to both Dr. Colker and Peak Wellness.”

“‘Ms. Grant’s petition for pre-action discovery against Dr. Colker is a direct violation of the court-ordered stay, and nothing more than an attempt to generate publicity on her false allegations and to harass people connected to Mr. McMahon, who is being sued by Ms. Grant in a separate matter,’ a spokesperson for McMahon said Tuesday afternoon in response to a request for comment for this report.”
