Lizzo's Attorneys Seek Dismissal of Harassment Lawsuit
The motion argues that the case, brought by former employee Asha Daniels, has no connection to California where it was filed.
- Lizzo's attorneys have filed a motion to dismiss a harassment and discrimination lawsuit brought by former employee Asha Daniels, a clothing designer for Lizzo's tour.
- The lawsuit alleges a 'culture of racism and bullying' during Daniels' employment, which lasted less than three weeks.
- Lizzo's legal team argues that the case should be dismissed due to Daniels being a New York resident who worked for a Delaware corporation in Europe, and thus has no connection to California where the suit was filed.
- Daniels' attorney, Ron Zambrano, has responded to the motion, accusing Lizzo's team of trying to shift blame to the victims and stating his commitment to seeking justice for his clients.
- This lawsuit follows a similar one filed by three former backup dancers in August, which Lizzo's legal team has also moved to dismiss.
