Jose, Ozzie being sued for at least $1 million
Associated Press

MIAMI -- Former American League MVP Jose Canseco and his twin brother are
being sued for at least $1 million for beating a California man during a
Miami Beach barroom brawl.

Christian Presley of Laguna Beach, Calif., sued Canseco and his brother
Ozzie for battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and
conspiracy to commit battery. He filed suit Tuesday in Miami's Circuit Court.

Presley is one of two California men who fought the Canseco brothers at the
Opium Gardens nightclub on Oct. 31, 2001. The Cansecos pleaded guilty to
felony charges last year to avoid jail sentences.

Presley "suffered a fractured nose and lacerations to his mouth, disgrace,
humiliation and shame'' when beaten by the brothers, the suit says.

Angel Ruiz, the lawyer who represented Jose Canseco in the criminal case,
said "Mr. Canseco will defend himself and his brother will defend himself
in the lawsuit.''

He said another Miami attorney, Gustavo Lage, will represent the Cansecos
in this case. Lage did not immediately return a call Friday seeking comment.

Canseco pleaded guilty Nov. 5 to felony aggravated battery and two counts
of misdemeanor battery, agreeing to three years probation, 250 hours of
community service and to take anger control classes.

His brother pleaded guilty to felony battery and misdemeanor battery. Ozzie
Canseco must complete 18 months probation, 200 hours of community service
and the anger management classes.

Had they been convicted at trial, Jose Canseco could have gotten 31 years
in prison and his brother 17 years.

A six-time All-Star, Jose Canseco ranks 26th on the career homer list with
446. He retired in May, finishing as a .266 hitter with 1,407 RBI and 200
stolen bases in 1,887 games with Oakland, Texas, Boston, Toronto, Tampa
Bay, the New York Yankees and the Chicago White Sox.

In 1988, he was voted AL MVP with Oakland, teaming with Mark McGwire to
become the "Bash Brothers.''

Ozzie Canseco had a brief major league career. He also played for two
seasons with the minor league Newark (N.J.) Bears.
