Monica Garcia is paying for her lip service, literally.
The infamous former RHOSLC star must pay Beauty Lab and Laser $35,853.60 as ruled by a judge on November 4.
Monica’s Lawsuit
Beauty Lab and Laser filed a proposed judgment with a Salt Lake City court on October 22, 2024.
In documents exclusively obtained by The Sun, the total includes: “the principal amount that the company initially sued for in August 2023, $2,000, plus pre-judgment interest at 18 percent per year (from February 2020 until October 2024). The interest totals $1,683.62.”
Monica was also charged a $15 late fee, costs and fees of $604.98 associated with the lawsuit, and Beauty Lab’s attorney’s fees totaling $31,550.
Beauty Lab is eligible to collect post-judgment interest at the rate of 18 percent per year until the judgment is fully satisfied, as indicated in the court docs.
Monica’s camp has fought back with the judgement saying:
“The amount of fees sought by plaintiff is greatly excessive in view of the amount in dispute in this action,” the star’s attorney argued in documents obtained by The U.S. Sun.
ICYMI:
Beauty Lab filed a lawsuit stating that Monica signed a contract with them December 10, 2019, to pay $2,449 for cosmetic injection services.
Monica only paid the initial payment of $449, which included the $49 set-up fee and $400 down payment.
Beauty Lab said that they “suffered, and continues to suffer, significant losses and damages” as a result of Monica defaulting on her signed agreement.
Monica filed a counter claim in September 2024 Lab for “breach of independent duty of care, breach of contract, and breach of duty of good faith and fair dealing.”
I may not understand law, but I can understand that this is MESSY. I have to wonder how Monica can financially afford to pay BL&L this settlement.
If I were Monica, I’d fall back on my RHOSLC commentary and pretend it never happened. With her posts and clap backs about this season; I’d be worried about more lawsuits coming my way. But I also think Monica might be too proud for that…
What do you all think?
