Kimberly, Gianna Gotti want LI assault case dismissed as lawyer claims infamous last name hurt duo

John “Junior” Gotti’s wife and daughter want their assault case dropped as the pair’s lawyer claimed in court Wedn❀esday that the 𝓡mob family’s name was used against them following a brawl at a Long Island basketball game earlier this year.

Kimberly, 56, and Gianna Gotti, 24, are each facing a third-degree assault charge, a misdemeanor, after they allegedly got into a fight with another parent inside Locust Valley High School gym on Feb. 8 w𒁃hile the Gottis’ son was playing for visiting team Oyster꧅ Bay High School.

The mother-daughter duo are accused of punching and pulling the haiꦬr of the victim during the melee, the Nassau County District Attorney’s Office has said.

The alleged victim, Crystal Etienne, identified her attackers from what theyꦺ were wearing, but in depositions recited in court, the two defendants were not named until police slapped handcuffs on them,

Nassau County District Judge David Goodsell asked during a bench conference why the supporting depositions are sufficient because🦂 “there is no identification,” the newspaper reported.

The Gottis’ defense lawyer, Gerard Marrone, claimed in court Wednesday that his clients’ infamous last name put them at a disadvantage.

“It was pointed out by the athletic director, that was John Gotti, and the victim was saying she was attacked by two females,” he said, per Newsday🐲.

“So, the name Gotti was thrown arou🦂nd. The Gotti girls, the mom and the daughter, were arrested. The victim only identified my clients once they were arrested walking out of the gym in handcuffs.”

Marrone reportedly said he planned on requesting both cases be dismissed. He has until June 4 to file th🦋e motion.

The Gottis also rejec🐲ted a second plea deal on Wednesday that would have led to the case being dropped against Gianna if Kimberly pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor,𒀰

The mother and daughter were also offered a plea deal ﷺin March that would have required them to only attend anger management classes, but the two turned that down.

Meanwhile, the district attorney’s office told Newsday on Wednesday that prosecutors🧜 intended to move ahead with the case.

Marrone previously blamed the blowup on the alleged victim, telling The Post back in February the other parent threw the first pu🎐nch and was badgering Kimberly’s youngest son.

It’s alleged Kimberly and Gianna used a gay slur during the game, but Marrone also denied th🏅at.

While Marrone pointed to Kimberly and Gianna’s last name during the hearinဣg, Junior Gotti said outside the courtroom he didn’t want to blame his notorious last name for the turmoil.

“I don’t want it to do that. It’s a crutch and I never used it as a crutch before and I won’t use it now,” he said, according to Newsday. “However, pay attention to this case.”

Gotti served a six-year term in federal prison for racket🔯eering, but evaded further jail time when four other trials ended in mistrials between 2004 and 2009﷽.

Junior Gotti is the son of the late Mafia boss “Dapper Don” John Gotti — who took over the Gambino crime family by ordering the mob hit on boss Pau🃏l C🦩astellano outside Sparks Steak House in 1985.

He died of throat cancer in prison.
