Michael Oher, the subject of the 2009 Oscar-winning film "The Blind Side," has filed court documents claiming he was misled into signing away his legal rights and entering a conservatorship with the Tuohy family of Tennessee. The conservatorship strips a person of their civil rights and allows the third-party to profit from their name and likeness. Oher is now seeking to have the conservatorship declared invalid and is asking for damages for the profits the Tuohys have made. The case is ongoing, and the court's ruling is yet to be determined.
