However, the film investor's attorneys say they tried to contact Bryan about the judgment but had no luck. They claimed Bryan "ignored all court notices and orders" and "refuses to meet and confer, to respond to emails, letters, and telephone calls, and to respond to legitimate discovery" — but knew about the judgment months ago and even spoke about it in the press.

They further pointed out that the Home Improvement alum — known for playing Tim Allen's oldest son on the hit show — stated on page 26 of the magazine “that he’s 'in the process’ of complying with the judgment."
