Erika Jayne says she's being ‘extorted’ by attorneys in $5 million fraud lawsuit
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Erika Jayne, 50, claims she is a victim of “extortion” after two attorneys who worked with Tom Girardi’s law firm, Girardi & Keese, filed a $5 million fraud lawsuit against her and her estranged husband.
"Extortion. This is what Im dealing with,” she commented the repost of her attorney Evan C. Borges’ response to a motion filed and published on Thursday.
Ronald Richards, the attorney representing the law offices of Philip R. Sheldon and Robert P. Finn (who filed the lawsuit), exclusively tells Page Six, “Erika believes she can accuse our clients of extortion by making public statements about them but in the same breath, wants to conceal the facts that would show the falsity of this statement. We will not let this happen.”
