Overview

  • Chevremont filed a summons in New York State Supreme Court on August 8 seeking at least $10 million plus interest, attorneys’ fees and costs.
  • The filing alleges improper pay from 2012 to 2022, including under a 2021 agreement and for multimillion-dollar deals she negotiated for Thomas.
  • Chevremont claims Thomas diverted funds and business opportunities from their jointly owned venture to Mickalene Thomas LLC.
  • The suit accuses Thomas of quid pro quo pressure to rekindle their relationship after their 2020 breakup and retaliatory termination in violation of New York human rights laws.
  • A detailed complaint has not yet been submitted, representatives for both sides have not responded to requests for comment, and a court response from Thomas is expected within weeks.
