A former employee of West Coast Chopper filed a lawsuit against Jesse James back in April of 2000, accusing her boss of sexual harassment, PEOPLE reports.
In the lawsuit, Deann McClung claimed that her boss made "sexually offensive contact with her breasts" and "did cause [her] to have sexually offensive contact with his sexual organ."
James then counter-sued McClung for fraud. In May of 2001, a judge dismissed both cases.
A lawyer told PEOPLE that a settlement was likely reached.
Jesse James Once Accused of Sexual Harassment
By PopEater Staff Posted Mar 27th 2010 09:51AM
"It is unfortunate but many times despite the total lack of merit it becomes more expedient just to resolve the matter as opposed to going through the process. I believe that is what happened in that particular situation," a lawyer for the 'Monster Garage' star, who did not represent him at the time, says.
James is currently in the middle of an infidelity scandal. Four women have stepped forward claiming they had an affair with him. He is married to Oscar-winner Sandra Bullock.

Why can't you guys give it up? The wives of these men need some respect and privacy. The media will do anything to keep the stories alive. Shame on you!

Sorry, Sandra. I'm not defending Jesse but the tiger can't change his stripes. Oops! Sorry again - bad pun.

Even the thought of getting close to this guys genitals is sexually offensive. The Butt-ugly store sold out when he last shopped there .Just shows what money and power can buy .

Michelle "bombshell" describes James as a White Gorilla.
I met Jesse at a book signing some years back. I was an avid admirer. Now the book is in the garbage and his name bears the reputation of being yet another "law breaker". My thoughts go out to Sandra in this most bittersweet time in her life. As for Jesse....eat my dust and bug off!

Jesse James is an ugly mutt. But truth be told, I don't really feel too bad for her. Did she actually think that marrying something of that ilk was gonna bring lasting happiness? Sometimes I think that these "Hollywood types" get what they deserve! Better to stay single and play the field I think!

If she was any better than him, she wouldn't have married him.

That would be obsessed... He is a freak..
Rex,
Umm...spellcheck? Dictionary? Anything that will help you look less like a third grader?
Thanks.
Well, he's no engineer, that's plain. He wanted to build a hovercraft on his show, and when a guy with engineering skills couldn't do what james wanted, he told him to get the f out. Nice. The guy should have sued james for that. But seriously, you dames posting all this hate, c'mon you nud-niks, you know damn well you would LOVE to get next to something dangerous like a jesse james, Oh he's wild, he's an outlaw! Then the wild animal bites, and you act surprised. Lick your wounds and find another alpha dog, bullock.

I disagree with those of you who says she deserves it,if thats the case all of you who said it you deserve what you get too!!! Do you have jobs? If your spouses or girlfriends or boyfriends had affairs on you does that mean you deserve it because you have a job? Sandra has a job and just because its alot better than most of ours does NOT mean she deserves to be treated this way.
