Lancaster attorney R. Rex Parris, who represented two of the employees, called the verdict “one of the largest…ever handed down in Los AngelesCounty,” in a release.
In August 2007, Marciano brought a lawsuit against his former employee, Joseph Fahs, alleging Fahs had embezzled millions of dollars in funds and stolen artwork, wines and other property from him.
He amended his complaint in February 2008 to include four additional former employees: Miriam Choi, Camille Abat, Steven Chapnick and Elizabeth Tagle.
