LOS ANGELES, Calif. –
It’s not exactly “The Matrix,” but Keanu Reeves is venturing into another world this week: the courtroom.
The civil trial of a paparazzo suing the actor will begin Monday in Los Angeles with attorneys wrangling over last-minute issues before selecting a jury.
Alison Silva is suing Reeves over a March 2007 accident in which he fell while photographing the “Matrix” star behind the wheel of his Porsche. Reeves was pulling out of a parking space, and Silva says he was knocked down by the actor’s car.
A judge has already said Silva can’t recoup punitive damages during the trial and thrown out other claims. The photographer is trying to prove Reeves acted negligently and receive money for his medical bills and lost income.
Reeves will play at least a supporting role during the trial: he arrived Monday dressed in a brown suit.

And this is from x17online.com
And X17 will be able to give you a first-hand account of what happens later this week because WE HAVE BEEN CALLED TO TESTIFY on Wednesday!!!
NOOOOO, the pap didn’t work for X17 and he never has, contrary to his claims. He told the court he lost income when he was injured by Reeves when the actor allegedly drove his Porsche over his foot. NOT TRUE!
We have never worked with the photog/paparazzo/photojournalist Alison Silva and in fact, he SUED US TOO!!!! The case was recently thrown out and Silva still owes us attorney’s fees … so WHY would he claim to have worked for us? … Our only answer is simply that the guy has a few loose screws …
Also, I’m receiving some emails asking about candids and paparazzi pictures. I just want to remember KeanuConnection visitors that we never posted that much candids here. But since this accident happened, I just decided in complete respect to Mr. Reeves do not post any paparazzi picture here anymore. Of course, I’m not blaming about other sites that do it, anyone is free to give the direction they want. But since the paparazzis are being a pain in the a** of Keanu, I believe I’ll do my part as fan and admirer if I don’t support it.
I’m sorry for all of you that really enjoy paparazzi pictures. But this is final decision that will not be changed.
