Big Dubious Sex Lawsuit Against Dov Charney Tossed Out
A year ago, pervy American Apparel founder Dov Charney was sued for a quarter of a billion dollars (ha) by Irene Morales, a former employee who claimed that he forced her to have sex with him in exchange for her employment at AA. After she filed her suit, a whole bunch of X-rated text messages and photos (see pic, for example) that she sent to Charney became public, seriously undermining her case.
Well, a New York judge has now tossed the case out of court, because it is in arbitration in California. So, it's theoretically still unresolved. Irene Morales should probably not hold her breath for that quarter billion, though.
This does not mean that Dov Charney is not sleazy in general.
