Jason Lee Parry

The teen model whose parents sued Urban Outfitters for $28 million for printing provocative images of their daughter will face the retailer in court. A New York federal judge rejected Urban Outfitter's fall 2011 claim that the suit was procedurally defective. Judge George Daniels ruled that Hailey Clauson's suit will move forward, stating that the model, "has sufficiently alleged a cause of action against Urban Outfitters for use of her image to create false endorsement or false designation of origin."

The parents of a 15-year-old model are suing Urban Outfitters — as well as two other retailers and photographer Jason Lee Parry, for putting images of the model "in a blatantly salacious manner with her legs spread, without a bra, revealing portions of her breasts," on T-shirts and other merchandise. They're seeking $28 million in damages.
