Nick Gordon did not appear at the civil hearing, nor did he appoint a lawyer, but his legal representatives have previously described the allegations as baseless.
Bobbi Kristina Brown was in a coma for six months before dying in a hospice aged 22 in July 2015 as a result of immersion in water and drug intoxication, according to medical records.
A post-mortem report was unable to determine whether death was due to intentional or accidental causes.
Bobbi Kristina Brown died in similar circumstances to her mother, who also died in a bathtub in 2012 with heart disease and cocaine use listed as contributing factors.
Her estate had been seeking at least $40 million from Nick Gordon in its wrongful death lawsuit against him, which was filed in October 2015.
Nick Gordon was accused of assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and transferring money from Bobbi Kristina Brown’s account into his own without authorization.
In a statement after November 17 court order one of the lawyers acting for her family said: “Bobbi suffered such horrific pain and degradation at the hands of Nick Gordon.”
“[He was] the man she loved and trusted. No one should suffer the way she did and the judge sent a strong message in the award of punitive damages that this despicable behaviour is inexcusable and will not be tolerated,” Glenda Hatchett was quoted by Atlanta Alive as saying.
Bobbi Kristina Brown’s father contended his daughter had a major career ahead of her in the entertainment industry before her untimely death.
Bobby Brown said in a statement after yesterday’s ruling that he was pleased with the judgment and called on prosecutors to file criminal charges.
“I do know Mr. Gordon will be unable to slander my daughter’s name in the future or obtain any benefits from the use of Krissy’s name,” NBC News quoted Bobby Brown as saying.

Bobbi Kristina Brown was the only daughter of Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown.
She died at a hospice in July 2015, six months after she was found unresponsive in a bath.
Bobbi Kristina Brown’s death was a result of immersion in water and drug intoxication, according to medical records.
An autopsy showed Bobbi Kristina Brown had morphine, marijuana, alcohol and prescription drugs in her body at the time of her death, but the cause of death was “undetermined.”
The lawsuit, which was filed in 2015, sought $50 million in damages.
The conservator of Bobbi Kristina Brown’s estate first filed a $10 million lawsuit after Whitney Houston’s daughter was moved to a hospice, alleging that Nick Gordon fraudulently claimed to be Brown’s husband in order to access her multimillion-dollar inheritance.
The lawsuit was later amended to include an allegation of wrongful death, seeking additional damages.

Bobbi Kristina Brown was the sole heir to Whitney Houston’s estate.
Bobbi Kristina Brown’s conservator Bedelia Hargrove has filed an amended lawsuit alleging that Nick Gordon gave Whitney Houston’s daughter a “toxic cocktail” and then put her face down in a tub of cold water.
The original suit was filed on June 24 in Fulton County Superior Court. It accused Nick Gordon of assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and transferring money from her account into his own without authorization.
Bobbi Kristina Brown died on July 26 months after being found unresponsive in the tub of her Roswell home on January 31. She was 22.
She never regained consciousness and was moved to hospice care in June.
The amended complaint, filed on August 7, adds a wrongful death count. It alleges that around 6AM on January 31, Nick Gordon returned after “being out all-night on a cocaine and drinking binge”. It also says that Nick Gordon watched camera footage of Bobbi Kristina Brown and listened to her conversations.
Nick Gordon and Bobbi Kristina Brown allegedly began arguing in the kitchen. The dispute moved to the living and then upstairs to the master bedroom. Nick Gordon accused Bobbi Kristina Brown of cheating and called her a number of names, the lawsuit alleges. The argument lasted about 30 minutes and then “everything abruptly became quiet.”

The lawsuit then says that Nick Gordon “gave Bobbi Kristina a toxic cocktail rendering her unconscious and then put her face down in a tub of cold water causing her to suffer brain damage”.
According to the suit, Nick Gordon then came out of the bedroom wearing different clothes than he was wearing in his argument with Bobbi Kristina, got into bed, laid his head on a female guest’s ankle and said: “Now I want a pretty little white girl like you.”
About 15 minutes later, a guest at the home went in to check on Bobbi Kristina Brown and found her face down in a tub. A dust pan was at the bottom of the tub, the lawsuit states.
Bobbi Kristina Brown was unresponsive, unconscious with a swollen mouth and a tooth hanging loosely from her mouth.
Nick Gordon allegedly then came into the bathroom, let the water out of the tub and shouted: “Clean up, clean up.”
Others, including Nick Gordon, began efforts to resuscitate Bobbi Kristina Brown and called for medical personnel.
Bobbi Kristina Brown was transported to North Fulton Hospital, where she was revived. She was later placed in a medically-induced coma.
Later, Bobbi Kristina Brown was diagnosed with “global and irreversible brain damage” and the lawsuit says “as a result of [Nick Gordon’s] actions.”
On August 7, Bedelia Hargrove amended the complaint, saying: “I am deeply saddened by the recent death of Bobbi Kristina Brown. I extend my sincerest condolences to all of her family. Consistent with and to the letter of the civil action I initially filed on behalf of Bobbi Kristina, we will continue to pursue justice for her. I have filed today an amended complaint against Nicholas Gordon adding a count for wrongful death and for pain and suffering. We will leave no stone unturned in seeking justice for Bobbi Kristina Brown.”
The amended suit also goes into more details on an incident where Nick Gordon allegedly knocked out a tooth of Bobbi Kristina Brown. According to the lawsuit, days before January 31, several witnesses saw Nick Gordon punch Bobbi Kristina Brown as she sat on a couch. The lawsuit said that the impact was so great that the couch broke, knocking Bobbi Kristina to the floor. Nick Gordon continued to attack Bobbi Kristina on the floor, “hitting her in the face until she was bloody,” the suit said. It goes on to say that Nick Gordon then began kicking her in the side “to the point that she was on the floor screaming and curled up in a fetal position.”
Bobbi Kristina Brown’s tooth was knocked out in the attack, the lawsuit states.
Nick Gordon then allegedly dragged Bobbi Kristina up the stairs by her hair to the master bedroom, later telling witnesses: “I don’t do this often.”
The lawsuit asks for damages of at least $10 million each for the assault, battery, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and conversion. It asks for an amount to be determined later for counts of quantum meruit/unjust enrichment and attorneys’ fees.
At this time, no criminal charges have been filed against Nick Gordon.

Bedelia Hargrove told People magazine in a statement: “I filed this lawsuit to pursue justice on behalf of Bobbi Kristina Brown. No human being, male or female, should endure what Bobbi Kristina endured.”
The legal case accuses Nick Gordon of assault, battery, infliction of emotional distress and maintaining “the fraud that he had married Brown” after she inherited a substantial amount of money.
It claims that Bobbi Kristina Brown, 22, confided to an unnamed person that Nick Gordon “was not the man she thought he was” and made plans to meet them on January 31 to talk about it.

Dr. Phil,
With all due respect, Nick Gordon is under investigation for the attempted murder of my niece Bobby Kristina Brown. We have strong evidence of foul play. Until this investigation is completed by law enforcement, I would ask that you or anyone else not provide this individual a platform to spin this situation to his benefit.
If Nick Gordon does not have the courage to speak with my brother Bobby Brown and/or law enforcement about what happened the day my niece’s body was found in a bathtub, he does not deserve to have a platform to speak to anyone of your caliber until this investigation is concluded.
Respectfully,
Leolah Brown

Following Bobbi Kristina Brown’s hospitalization, it was also revealed via Bobby Brown’s lawyer that Whitney Houston’s daughter and Nick Gordon are not married despite announcing their supposed nuptials in January 2014.
According to new reports, Nick Gordon only visited Bobbi Kristina Brown once, when she was initially admitted to North Fulton Hospital.
Bobbi Kristina Brown, 21, has since moved to another Atlanta-area hospital for better neurological care.
“Nick hasn’t been to visit Bobbi since she moved to this hospital,” a source told Us Weekly.
“I think he’s banned from seeing her. Nick spent the entire first day with her, but hasn’t been back to see her.”
The fact of the matter is Nick Gordon is actually banned from having contact with much of the Houston family after Whitney Houston’s sister Marion Houston was granted a protective order against him last year.
Nick Gordon is not allowed to be within 200 yards of Marion Houston or her “immediate family,” which applies to seeing Bobbi Kristina Brown in the hospital since Marion is there.
His absence comes as multiple reports reveal that he and Bobbi Kristina Brown were actually never married, despite pubic and social media claims by both of them that they were.

Whitney Houston’s daughter is currently fighting for her life in an Atlanta hospital, but Roswell police continue to investigate the happenings that took place last Saturday morning that resulted in Bobbi Kristina Brown’s nearly drowning in her bathtub.
The E! News reported that while police aren’t considering this a criminal investigation just yet, they are actively looking into multiple people that might have been connected to Bobbi Kristina Brown.
Whitney Houston’s daughter received a visit on Saturday morning from a Comcast Xfinity cable technician, which prompted Max Lomas and Nick Gordon to go looking for her.
Max Lomas apparently didn’t rush to the bathroom out of fear something was wrong with his friend’s girlfriend, but instead sought her out to get help for the cable guy. He entered when she didn’t respond to his knocks and calls.
“When Max found her he called for Nick,” a source told E! News.
Nick Gordon then proceeded to perform CPR on Bobbi Kristina Brown, 21. The source estimates that it could have been close to half-an-hour before any significant oxygen flow was returned into Bobbi Kristina Brown’s respiratory system when the paramedic arrived.
Max Lomas has told police that he doesn’t recall whether or not the bathroom door was locked at the time. But according to the source, investigators continue to press him on this because initially he had told them that the door was locked. Because he wasn’t sure if it was hard to open or actually locked, he allegedly changed his story to say he didn’t remember.
Investigators have interviewed both Maxwell Lomas and Nick Gordon multiple times and have been cooperating with authorities. The investigation has been “thorough and professional.” Police haven’t indicated any reason to believe foul play is involved.
Max Lomas and Nick Gordon partied together at an Atlanta nightclub the night before, but Bobbi Kristina Brown didn’t go with them, the source says. She was home when they returned around 6 a.m. Saturday morning. But police have been trying not only to piece together what happened after they came back but also what Bobbi Kristina Brown was doing and with whom in the hours prior.
Police have left open the possibility that someone was with her at home, and the source says it could have been Max Lomas’ girlfriend. The source also adds that police are skeptical to believe that only the cable guy, Max Lomas and Nick Gordon were in the house that morning, which is why they have been asking nearby employees whether or not they saw anyone hop Bobbi Kristina Brown’s fence.
