Curtis Heffernan, a former president of Dan Bilzerian’s Ignite International Brands Ltd., sued the company claiming he was fired in June after refusing to approve his bosses’ extravagant expenditures.

Heffernan, a former Procter & Gamble executive, claims he called Bilzerian on expenses that included $15,000 for a ping pong table, $40,000 for a rock-climbing wall and $130,340 on a Bahamian photo shoot.
