A former beverage manager at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas has sued Dennis Rodman, claiming the ex-basketball star assaulted her last year by rubbing against her body and slapping her on the buttocks.
In her federal lawsuit filed last week, Sara Robinson also accuses her former
employer of retaliating against her after she complained about Rodman's behaviour.
Rodman spokeswoman Shannon Barr declined to comment.
Rodman, 46, is no stranger to lawsuits in Las Vegas. In 2001, a state jury awarded former Mirage craps dealer James Brasich US$80,000 (NZ$107,831) in a case against Rodman. Brasich said Rodman humiliated him by rubbing dice on his head, chest, stomach and genitals during an October 1997 craps game.
Rodman appealed and both sides later reached a confidential settlement.
