Adult performer Carmen Hayes has filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles County Superior Court seeking unspecified damages against West Coast Productions through her attorneys, Fattorosi & Chisvin.
The lawsuit follows West Coast's termination of her contract on August 15. The complaint alleges nine causes of action: Breach of Contract, Common Counts, Fraud, Intentional Interference with Prospective Advantage, Unfair Business Act or Practice, False Advertising, Commercial Misappropriation of Likeness, Unjust Enrichment, and Breach of Implied Covenant of Good Faith & Fair Dealing.
West Coast Productions executives were not immediately available for comment Wednesday.
According to Hayes, she was shocked by West Coast's decision to terminate their contract just more than one month after its inception. Originally, she was excited to work with the company and wanted to develop her own style and brand of adult content.
Hayes said, "the only event that I was required to attend was a poker tournament in Pasadena at the Hilton for the AVN Adult Novelty Expo in July."
The veteran of more than a 100 adult films was signed by WCP effective on July 1 as its only female contract performer.
