Talk about courtroom drama!

Former Guess Inc. fit model Lindsey Ring is suing the fashion company, alleging that its CEO Paul Marciano of making unwanted sexual advances toward her, including groping and suggestive comments, according to WWD.

Filed in the Los Angeles, Calif. Superior Court, the lawsuit goes on to charge that Guess cut back Ring's fit model hours when she resisted Marciano's come-ons, and that she quit February of this year because she feared for her physical safety, reports the source.

Claiming mental anguish and emotional distress, Ring is seeking damages for lost wages, benefits and medical expenses.

But it looks like Guess Inc. will be staunchly fighting the suit: VP and general counsel Deborah Siegel said, "The case has no merit," the site reports.

The fashion company known for its bombshell Guess girls now has bi-coastal lawsuits: Guess was sued by a New York City landlord.

I have always been very afraid of aging, you know, becoming old and useless and unattractive. When I turned 50, I decided to do something about it. I've spent fortunes on face creams and anti-aging serums… but using GenFX is the first time I've tried turning back the clock from the inside out. It's also the last time I'll spend a fortune on face creams! Now everyone says I look 35!

the posters with the ads are wasting their time. The real real money is doing what the girl in this article did..see it happening all the time. I know a couple women who tried this and they are the ones who did the seducting, not their boss. But, money is money and some people have no scruples. This girl in the article? Who knows....I just think it is way over done.

More from the Marciano Klan - GUESS? What’s new

Some members of the Marciano family apparently believe they are above the law. A young (age 25) domestic employee of Armand and Marie Marciano, claims she was forced to have sexual intercourse and oral sex with Armand Marciano at their sprawling Beverly Hills mansion allegedly under the threat that he would have her deported and would fire her if she did not relent to his advances. She spat his semen on her nightgown and later presented it to the Los Angeles Police Department for a DNA analysis. The DNA would prove to be that of Armand Marciano.

Both the Marciano’s are named in Superior Court lawsuits. Marie allegedly covered up the acts of her husband by having the room in which the young employee slept refurbished after notice that the police were investigating the matter.

Another employee, who was discharged from her employment after giving the police a statement, contends that her firing was a further cover-up of the alleged conduct of the Marciano’s.
