Ellen DeGeneres is challenging a lawsuit tied to a 2023 car accident, insisting she was never properly served with legal documents. The 68-year-old former daytime host faces allegations of negligence after allegedly running a stop sign in Santa Barbara County, causing personal and property damage.
Court documents shared by Globe Magazine show DeGeneres' lawyers contesting the plaintiff's claim that three attempts were made to serve her, arguing the papers were handed to a security guard at her business management firm rather than DeGeneres herself.
