LOHAN’S ‘VICTIM’ HAS BAR BILL AS EVIDENCE OF INTOXICATION
LATEST: The victim of LINDSAY LOHAN’s 2005 Hollywood car crash has retrieved the actress’ bar bill to prove she was under the influence when the accident occurred.
Lohan is being sued by Raymundo Ortega for crashing her Mercedes-Benz into his red van in Los Angeles, after allegedly drinking at celebrity hotspot The Ivy.
The Mean Girls star has refuted claims she had consumed alcohol during her lunch date with pals and says the police report of the incident will prove her innocence against Ortega’s allegations.
But Ortega has now gotten hold of the actress’ restaurant bill, which shows the party of five ordered four Ivy Gimlets - a strong vodka and mint cocktail, reports TMZ.com.
And he hopes the new evidence will be enough for a judge to rule in his favour over the negligence lawsuit - although there is no way of knowing if Lohan, then 19, drank the cocktail.
Lohan - who was recently ordered to give a videotaped deposition in relation to the lawsuit - has filed a countersuit to fight the claims, and is seeking damages of $75,000 (£37,500) from Ortega.
A trial date of 7 April (08) has been set for both cases.
