Nightclub incident

Lux filed a criminal complaint against Sutil for physical assault and grievous bodily harm.[4][5] In January 2012 Sutil was found guilty by a court in Munich and given an 18-month suspended prison sentence and fined 200,000 Euros.[6] Sutil later planned to appeal his sentence, as well as the prosecutor,[7][8] though Sutil decided against it.[9]
