‘Nevermind’ Baby Refiles Suit Against Nirvana
A Los Angeles man pictured as a naked baby 30 years ago on the cover of the multimillion-selling Nirvana album Nevermind has refiled his lawsuit against the grunge-rock trio under a federal statute which allows victims of child pornography to recover damages for violations of child porn laws, according to documents obtained today.
Spencer Elden, 30, alleges that the now-defunct group, various record companies and art directors caused him to suffer “lifelong damages” by “trafficking” his image worldwide.
The suit was dismissed Jan. 3 after a judge found he had missed a deadline, but was given a chance to amend his complaint and refile within 10 days. The suit was lodged with Los Angeles federal court on Wednesday.
