Hotel sues Phil Spector over unpaid bills
LOS ANGELES (AP) -June 19, 2008 In court papers filed in Los Angeles Wednesday, the Westin
Bonaventure Hotel and Suites allege the defendants agreed in a
written contract to reserve rooms for the duration of the trial.
The lawsuit claims that by the time Spector's trial ended with a
hung jury in September, the defendants owed the hotel more than
$104,000.
The lawsuit alleges fraud, breach of written contract and other
charges.
Spector faces a second trial in the murder of actress Lana
Clarkson at his home in 2003. The producer is known for his "Wall
of Sound" recording technique.
