We need to ask Bieber about Selena: lawyer

A lawyer is asking Justin Bieber to return to Florida so he can ask him about his ex-girlfriend Selena Gomez, who was present during previous altercations.

A lawyer wants Justin Bieber to return to Florida so he can ask more questions about the pop singer's ex-girlfriend, Selena Gomez, as part of a photographer's lawsuit against Bieber and his bodyguard.

Lawyer Mark DiCowden says in the motion filed on Tuesday that Bieber's legal team wrongly prevented him from asking about Gomez during a March 6 deposition.

DiCowden says the actress was at previous altercations between Bieber and photographers.

Photographer Jeffrey Binion is seeking unspecified damages from Bieber and bodyguard Hugh Hesney over the June confrontation outside a Miami-area recording studio.

Bieber refused to answer questions about Gomez in the first deposition, and his lawyers criticised the questioning as irrelevant.

DiCowden wants a judge to order Bieber to return within 30 days.
