The family of John Graziano is suing the Hogan family in relation to the car crash which led to Nicholas Bollea's arrest for Reckless Driving Involving Serious Bodily Injury resulting from an Aug. 26, 2007 wreck which seriously injured Graziano — who has since had part of his frontal lobe removed and will probably require specialized care indefinitely. It has been reported that Graziano only responds to heat and light.

Allegations that Hulk purchased alcohol for Nick and his friends on the day of the accident, is also included in the suit. The suit also says that Hulk Hogan and his wife Linda knew that Nick's vehicle had been modified for speed racing.

Moreover, according to TMZ, since getting his license last year, Hogan received three speeding tickets in the last year (not including August's crash).

In the first incident, on Sept. 17, 2006, Nick was pulled over for doing 115 mph in a 70 mph zone. For his second ticket, TMZ reports he was clocked doing 57 in a 30. And for his third bust, he was clocked doing 106 in a 70. Graziano is a Marine who had just come back from Iraq.

Reportedly, the Graziano family has already spent more than $1 million in medical care. The lawsuit cites 3 counts of negligence against Nick and Hulk, one against Linda and another count against the driver of the Dodge Viper that Nick was racing with.
