JOAN RIVERS: Melissa Ready to Sue Over Mother's Death

Joan Rivers's daughter Melissa is getting set to file a lawsuit over her mother's death in September.

TMZ says Melissa has retained a law firm that will file a medical malpractice and wrongful death lawsuit against the clinic where Joan stopped breathing, and against the doctors who were involved. The suit, however, won't be filed for around a month.

The New York City Medical Examiner’s office determined that the 81-year-old comedian had her oxygen supply cut off while undergoing a medical procedure.
