We Told You About Libel Suit Between Robert Wood and Kathy Feinerman. Now He’s Suing Her For Misued Funds. Did She Claim He Was Dead?
BOCA RATON, FL (BocaNewsNow.com) (Copyright © 2025 MetroDesk Media, LLC) — A Boca Raton woman facing a libel/slander suit for allegedly telling people her beau was cheating is now facing a lawsuit from the same man who believes she told banks he was dead in an effort to take his cash. It is the second lawsuit filed by Robert Wood, Sr., against Kathy Feinerman. Read about the first suit here.
The latest complaint filed in Palm Beach County Circuit Court alleges that Ms. Feinerman was either either manipulative herself or manipulated in a scheme. Feinerman, claims the suit, may have orchestrated a series of events to convince Robert Wood that she loved him so he took care of her, provided funds, even purchased a custom designed engagement ring. But when it was time to seal the deal, Wood alleges that Feinerman tried to have him arrested, then told banks that he was dead in a possible effort to take his funds. Here are key sections of the lawsuit, which you can read in its entirety at the end of this report:
“Plaintiff and Defendant were in a long term relationship. During the course of this relationship Plaintiff took care of Defendant when she was ill and perhaps on to many Prescription Pain Medicines, and in addition to assisting her financially physically aided her io her recovery from injuries and took care of her performing numerous personal services.
Through the course of the long term relationship Defendant took funds from Plaintiff for various personal items and personal expenses for herself and for her children from another marriage totaling approximately $229,800.00 Near the end of the relationship, Defendant demanded extremely expensive custom jewelry including an engagement ring which she designed to her specifications with a jeweler on Plaintiffs account. Near the end of the relationship, Defendant took a Credit /Debit Card on Plaintiff’s account.
Defendant made purchases on the credit/debit card account on her own, and without any pre-approval of Plaintiff.
Detendant was careless with the credit/debit account, or in the alternative actively conspired to drain the money market accounts that were attached to the account, as the account suffered an almost immediate attempt to drain the linked accounts resulting in the account being frozen by Plaintiffs financial institution.
Contemporaneously with the accounts being frozen and the attempt to drain the accounts, multiple emails claiming various items such as the Plaintiffs death were circulated in what appears to be an attempt to get the financial institution to release funds. It remains unclear if Defendant was a co-conspirator in the attempt to drain the accounts or merely so careless with the account that the information was immediately stolen by criminal fraudsters.
At around the same time Plaintiff went to bring the engagement ring Defendant ordered and to propose to Defendant. Despite having dated for years, and having herself custom ordered the very expensive marked up custom ring on Plaintiffs account, Defendant not only rejected the proposal but had arranged to have the police throw Plaintiff out of the office before he could even formal propose. Shortly thereafter, Defendant wrongfully sought a restraining order complaining about ordinary communications and of all things, about the emails sent to try and hijack his money market accounts. and accusing him of harassing her by being the false emails of his own death. Said actions appears to be an intentional subterfuge to distract from the attempted theft of millions for the account that happened shortly after Defendant got a card on the account.”
The suit seeks in excess of $50,000 which is the statutory minimum for filing in Palm Beach County Circuit Court. This suit is in addition to the libel and slander suit filed by Mr. Wood against Ms. Feinerman earlier this month. Read the latest complaint here:
