(Reuters) - The actress who played tomboy Elly May Clampett on 1960s television show "The Beverly Hillbillies" has settled her lawsuit against Mattel over a Barbie doll based on her character.
Actress Donna Douglas, now 78, sued the toy company in May as well as the consumer products division of CBS Corp. seeking a minimum of $75,000 in damages. Her complaint said Mattel was "engaging in the unauthorized use" of her name, likeness and image to promote and sell the "Elly May" Barbie. Attorneys in the case filed court papers on Tuesday in Louisiana indicating the lawsuit had been settled. The financial terms were not revealed Douglas starred in "The Beverly Hillbillies" which ran from 1962 to 1971 on CBS television. She played the beautiful but naive Elly May Clampett, in the show about a family that struck oil and ditched their backwoods home for life in California.

“Plaintiffs, for their own personal agendas, have sought to undermine the duly appointed police chief and Nampa Police Department leadership,” the city’s answer to the officers’ federal lawsuit states. “Thereafter, plaintiffs made baseless allegations, ignored Police Department policies, and took their complaints outside the normal chain of command. “It is specifically and adamantly denied that plaintiffs’ allegations were ignored.” Nampa Mayor Tom Dale and Police Chief Bill Augsburger filed the document Friday in response to a lawsuit filed Sept. 29 by Lt. Joe Huff, Sgt. Curtis Shankel, investigator Leonard Claunts and Claunts’ wife, Ginger. The longtime officers say they reported policy violations and misuse of city funds to Augsburger — and ultimately to the mayor — resulting in little or no discipline. Instead, they said, the department launched “a campaign of retaliatory harassment.” In its response, the city denies retaliation and contends Augsburger didn’t ignore allegations about other officers. Instead, the response states, Augsburger took disciplinary actions he deemed appropriate and the plaintiffs disagreed with those decisions. Among the misconduct the plaintiffs say they reported, to no avail, were one officer’s use of excessive force and an officer repeatedly showing up for work under the influence of alcohol. read full story at www.idahostatesman.com |
