" Russell Brand has hit back at a man who alleges the comedian hit him with his car. Victor Sneed filed a lawsuit against Brand last year, claiming that he was injured when the actor drove into him in LA last January.  Sneed is seeking over $25,000 (\u00C2\u00A315,400) for personal injury, property damage and hospital bills. However, Brand has now fought back in court documents obtained by E! News. In the papers, Brand says that he &amp;quot;denies both generally and specifically each, every and all of the allegations contained in the Complaint&amp;quot;. He goes on to allege that he was not responsible for the incident, as the papers state that Sneed&amp;#039;s &amp;quot;own negligence was the sole and proximate cause of the accident and any injuries he sustained&amp;quot;. The documents also claim that &amp;quot;any injury or damage&amp;quot; suffered by Sneed was a &amp;quot;direct, proximate and sole result of plaintiff&amp;#039;s physical bodily condition and constitutional composition&amp;quot;.  Elsewhere in the court papers, Brand suggests that Sneed was working at the time of the accident and so should be compensated by his employers. Brand, whose FX talkshow Brand X will return in February, was recently rumoured to be dating MTV presenter Kate Peck. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
