LOS ANGELES, Dec. 20 (UPI) -- Brittany Murphy's mother has filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles suggesting toxic mold in the actress' home might have contributed to her Dec. 20, 2009 death.
Murphy died of pneumonia, anemia and multiple drug intoxication at age 32. Her husband, screenwriter Simon Monjack, died five months later of pneumonia and anemia at age 39.
