Normally we have positive things to report regarding Steve Harvey. So, this is just a misunderstanding and will be figured out real soon. “Family Feud” host and media mogul Steve Harvey is being sued by a Nashville company for approximately $200,000. Business Aircraft Leasing, Inc, a private jet brokerage firm, claims that Harvey did not pay the remaining monies owed for custom alterations to a private jet.

According to USA Today, Business Aircraft Leasing Inc. says in court papers that Harvey agreed to pay it $400,000 for customization of a Gulfstream jet that he “orally promised” to lease for $97,000 a month. The Nashville company hired a Florida company, Private Sky Aviation, to do the work. That included altering the plane from 16 to 14 seats and customizing the seat and interior design. Harvey paid about half of that money before saying he did not want to lease the aircraft, according to the federal lawsuit. Business Aircraft Leasing is suing Harvey and One World Aviation — a company Harvey owns or operates, according to court paperwork — for the remaining $205,040 or more. The company asks that sum to be determined at trial. The aircraft renovated for Harvey is listed on the company’s website as available for lease. See it here. Business Aircraft Leasing Inc filed papers at the U.S. District Court in Nashville, TN on last Wednesday (Nov. 11). Steve Harvey and his company, One World Aviation are named as defendants in the lawsuit. A reply from Harvey’s camp is still pending.
