Sept 1, 2009
A lawyer for former co-executive director of the Miss California USA organization Shanna Moakler is responding to dethroned Miss California Carrie Prejean's lawsuit.
In the lawsuit, filed Monday in Los Angeles Superior court against Miss California USA officials, including Moakler, Prejean accuses the organization of religious discrimination among other things.
"On Ms. Moakler's behalf, I can say unequivocally that Ms. Prejean's lawsuit is without merit," Moakler's lawyer, Melvin Avanzado, told ET.
