Girls Gone Wild founder Joe Francis has been ordered to pay thousands of dollars in legal fees incurred by Jayde Nicole, the Playboy hottie he attacked at a West Hollywood nightclub last summer, RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned.
As RadarOnline.com has previously reported, Francis was caught on security video pulling Nicole's hair at Guys and Dolls nightclub last August after Nicole spilled a drink on him. The attack was so violent, Nicole fell to the ground.

Following the incident, Nicole filed a million dollar lawsuit against Francis; he then counter-sued her as well.

Tuesday morning, a judge in Los Angeles ruled that Francis must pay Nicole almost $30,000 in legal fees she has incurred.
Nicole's powerhouse attorney, Ronald Richards, tells RadarOnline.com exclusively, "Today Joe Francis will owe Jayde Nicole a minimum of at least $31,000 pending a final ruling in attorneys' fees for filing a cross complaint that infringed upon her free speech rights. He never appealed the dismissal by the court, and that judgment is final. He won't be able to spin that any other way."

I hate Joe the a-hole rapist. But, she got what she deserved. She dumped her drink on him while his back was turned, then she tried to hide and act like she didn't do anything. Don't start something you can't finish!

I hope Jayde collects triple what she is seeking from him, Joe Francis is a PIG.

What is up with Jayde's face? Did she have too much plastic surgery/injectibles or is that natural? She looks so wonky!!

She incited it by throwing the drink on him, enough said.

The article doesn't say she "threw" a drink on him; it says she SPILLED a drink on him. Hardly anything to warrant a physical attack.

She THREW her drink on the back of Joe Francis' head while his back was turned from her.
