Four models filed two federal lawsuits alleging Connecticut night clubs were using their names to promote businesses without the women's approval or consent.
The lawsuits were e-filed Saturday in U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut. One lawsuit was filed on behalf of Nikki Leigh and Rachel Koren against Bridgeport-based Evolution Sports Bar and Lounge. The other suit, filed by Brenda Lynn Geiger and Lina Posada, named New Haven-based Club Vandome as a defendant.
The same attorneys filed both lawsuits, which were similar in their allegations: The clubs allegedly took the photos off the models' websites and used them in advertising. The lawsuits allege the clubs have misled their patrons into believing the models support the establishments or have danced there.
