Courtney Love's Daughter Won't Testify in Mom's Twitter Defamation Lawsuit

A Los Angeles Superior Court judge won't allow the law firm suing Courtney Love for defamation to depose her daughter, Frances Bean Cobain.
Cobain, 20, reacted by seeking a protective order against such a deposition, arguing that she was cut off from contact with her mother at the time of the tweet, and that what Gordon & Holmes was seeking -- including sealed documents in Cobain's old guardianship proceedings -- amounted to "inadmissible and nondiscoverable character evidence."
"I am informed and believe that Cobain has been an alleged victim of false statements made by ... Love on Twitter.
On Tuesday, a judge signed off on a protective order because the plaintiffs had failed to demonstrate that Cobain had knowledge relevant to the ongoing case. Additionally, a judge nixed the law firm's attempt to gain guardianship or emancipation records.
