Nation's Restaurant News, May 27, 2002
PANAMA CITY, FLA. -- A former Hooters waitress here settled her lawsuit against franchisee Gulf Coast Wings Inc. over its alleged deception in promising a new Toyota as a sales prize but instead rewarding her with a new "toy Yoda" doll.
Ex-server Jodee Berry, 27, now can "pick out whatever type of Toyota she wants," her attorney, David Noll, was quoted by the Associated Press as saying. However, he would not disclose the settlement's details. After winning the beer sales contest last May, Berry quit her job and sued for breach of contract and fraudulent misrepresentation.
