Last October, Benjamin Golden hired an Uber driver, but was too drunk to communicate to the driver where he was to be taken. So the driver pulled over saying the ride was over. Golden then assaulted the Uber driver, which was recorded by that driver. Originally Golden was apologetic to everyone for his actions, but now after being fired from his executive job at Taco Bell, has decided to sue the driver (Edward Caban) for recording Golden without his permission (against California law).
Former Taco Bell exec sues Uber driver he was filmed drunkenly beating down for $5 million
Before this lawsuit was filed, Golden had been filmed crying in interviews apologizing for his actions:

Edward Caban had filed a lawsuit after the attack for $25,000 for "assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and negligent infliction of emotional distress". But Golden sure has upped the ante with his five million dollar lawsuit against the man he physically assaulted...
