Backstreet Boy Brian Littrell dealt legal blow in fight against woman he claims trespassed on his private beach
Brian Littrell’s $50,000 lawsuit against woman he claimed trespassed on private beach property Walton County, Fla. He was dismissed by the judge.
The judge dismissed the case on Tuesday “without prejudice” on the grounds that “no request was stated for which relief could be granted,” according to court documents obtained by Page Six.
But Brian and his wife, Leighanne Littrell, have 20 days to refile the amended complaint in their case.

A rep for Brian and Leighanne did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.
The couple first took legal action against Carolyn Barrington Hill on September 19, 2025, charging her with seven counts of unlawful trespass, one count of invasion of privacy and one count of stalking, relating to incidents that occurred between April 2025 and September 6, 2025. However, they later persistently denied the allegations of stalking.
In their legal filing, they claimed Hill ignored “no trespassing” signs on their property in Santa Rosa Beach and entered the area “without right or authority.”
They claimed Hill “set out to mistreat, bully and harass” them with “numerous” “intrusions” that began in April.

Brian and Leighanne also claimed they suffered “emotional distress” because Hill’s “trespass” interfered with their “use and enjoyment of the property.”
By the judge’s order, Littrell’s claim for emotional damages was denied because “emotional distress damages are not allowed in a trespass claim.”
Brian and Leighanne also listed BLB Beach Hut LLC as a plaintiff, and according to the judge, the company cannot suffer emotional distress as a legal entity and not a person.
In one incident, the duo accused Hill of setting up his own beach furniture on their property before getting into a heated argument with their property manager.

The lawsuit alleged that Hill began “yelling and cursing” at the property manager after she asked him to move her belongings.
They also alleged that he “videotaped” them without their “knowledge or consent” and “incited” other members of the public to join him in allegedly trespassing on their property.
In addition to Hill, the Littrells also sued the Walton County Sheriff’s Office for allegedly failing to enforce their private property rights.
