Model Settles Lawsuit With Strip Club Owners
A Cuban model settled a lawsuit Monday with the owners of a West Los Angeles strip club over their alleged use of her photo in a club ad, the establishment's attorney said.Mayra Veronica Aruca filed her lawsuit Oct. 18 in Los Angeles Superior Court against Stars Planet Inc., owners of the Silver Reign club at 11908 Mississippi Ave, alleging misappropriation of image and likeness, invasion of privacy and unjust enrichment.
David Chew, a corporate officer of Star Planet Inc., said previously that a graphic art designer the company hired to make the ad took the woman's photo from an Internet site. The photo showed part of her body, but not her face, Chew said.
The club owners did not know the image was of Aruca until her lawyers asked them to stop using it about four months ago, Chew said. The ad was then pulled, Chew said.
