No Cash for You! Seinfeld Sued

So Jerry Seinfeld and his wife buy a brownstone in Manhattan and, yada yada yada, they're hit with a lawsuit.

Naturally, there's a little more to that story.

When Seinfeld and wife Jessica Sklar plunked down $4 million on their new domain, real estate broker Tamara Cohen claims to have had a hand in finessing the sale.

Cohen claims that after she helped the Seinfelds close the deal, they neglected to pay her company the $117,000 commission she believed she was owed.

As a result, the broker is suing the couple for the balance, according to court documents obtained by Celebrity Justice.

However, the funnyman and his spouse deny that Cohen acted as their broker in the sale, though they did offer to compensate her for her time, according to a statement released by their representative.

"Tamara Cohen did not fulfill the basic broker duties required by law," the rep stated. "However, the Seinfelds offered her a very generous fee for her time, but not for the sale, because she was not entitled to it. She declined the offer and now she's just trying to take advantage."

Meanwhile, despite being stung by a lawsuit, life is pretty sweet for Seinfeld.

The comic has written CGI-animated film Bee Movie for DreamWorks, which he will also produce and provide the lead voice for, backed by an all-star cast, including Renée Zellweger, Oprah Winfrey and Uma Thurman.

The pic tells the story of a bee fresh out of college who sues humanity for theft of his species' honey supply.

Bee Movie has been slated for a Nov. 2, 2007 release, DreamWorks said Thursday.

There's also talk that the Seinfelds are expecting a third offspring, after Regis Philbin broke the news on Live with Regis and Kelly. However, no confirmation has been issued by the family's camp.

The couple already have two children: 4-year-old Sascha and 2-year-old Julian.
