Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield has filed a federal lawsuit against a financial firm owned by his father, James Mayfield, seeking nearly $12 million that was allegedly taken without his authorization. According to the lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas, Camwood Capital Management Group transferred over $12 million from Mayfield and his wife without proper documentation or accounting. The money was allegedly used for various purposes, including funding acquisitions and operating expenses, without providing any benefit to Mayfield.
When Mayfield confronted the company about the unauthorized transfers, they reportedly provided false explanations and avoided answering his questions. Camwood, owned by James Mayfield and with a stake owned by Matt Mayfield, did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
This story, originally reported by NBC News, sheds light on a legal battle within the Mayfield family and their business dealings. The lawsuit highlights the alleged misconduct by the financial firm in handling Mayfield’s funds and exposes a strained relationship between the NFL star and his family’s company. Mayfield is seeking retribution for the money taken without his consent and aims to hold Camwood accountable for their actions.
