Ashlie Hardway, reporter for Channel 7, KVIA, in El Paso, Texas was sued twice in one month in 2008. On October 27, 2008, my lawyer, Doris Sipes, served a lawsuit on Ashlie Hardway. I am suing her for a false and defamatory story she ran on the public airwaves regarding me during the 2008 Democratic Primary when I was a candidate for District Attorney. (See blog dated October 28, 2009.) Amazingly, less than one month later, on November 26, 2008, in another city where Ashlie Hardway used to live and work, Mr. Rene Cervantes of Laredo, Texas filed a lawsuit against Ashlie Hardway in Webb County, Texas District Court for Tortious Interference with Prospective Relation and Tortious Interference with Existing Contract. The cause number is 2008CVQ0018532 styled:
Rene Cervantes
v.
The City of Laredo
PRO 8 News, Hearst
Newspapers II.L.L.C. D/B/A
The Laredo Morning Times,
Entravision-Texas G.P., L.L.C.
D/B/A KLDO-TV, and Ashlie Hardway,
Defendants
I will post this lawsuit as a link on Friday, May 22, 2009.
Mr. Cervantes is suing Ashlie Hardway for a story she ran on him. According to his pleadings, Hardway used documents that were not available to the public and she admitted to having received them from the Laredo Police Department. Mr. Cervantes has sued several entities but Ashlie Hardway has the distinction of being the only individual actually named in his lawsuit. He has a special place for her.
Ashlie Hardway has racked up at least two lawsuits in her short career as a reporter. No wonder she moved to El Paso from Laredo. However, her past is catching up with her. Now the question is, how many more lawsuits are out there against Ashlie Hardway? How many more are there to come? Most people live their whole lives without ever being sued even once. Not Ashlie Hardway. She just rackin'em up. KVIA is now on abundant notice about Ashlie Hardway and her work practices. It will be interesting to see them defend her in future lawsuits. Ashlie Hardway is the caliber of reporter El Paso, the 99th market place, attracts and whom KVIA is eager to hire. Lucky us.
