The suit, filed in San Francisco Superior Court, comes just as Oracle OpenWorld's mega conference gets rolling, bringing an estimated 60,000 conventioneers to town. According to the lawsuit, the employee - identified as Jose Manuel Gomez Sanchez - used his Oracle-issued American Express card to charge $16,490 in unspecified "services" at the New Century Theater on Larkin Street during the wee hours of Oct. 2 during last year's Oracle OpenWorld fest. It must have been some party, because the employee returned two nights later and rang up another $17,050 in charges. New Century bills itself as "San Francisco's premier all nude gentleman's club" - and even offers discounts to convention-goers. An Oracle spokeswoman declined to comment on the suit. New Century's attorney David Cook wasn't talking either, telling us only that the lawsuit speaks for itself. And maybe so does Cook's e-mail address: Cook@SqueezeBloodFromTurnip.com. |
