In the lawsuit, the actress alleges that several individuals have made false statements about her in order to damage her partnerships with third-party organizations and businesses.
Olivieri claims that one of those potential partnerships was with workwear giant Dickies as she had set up a campaign with the company.
However, she claims that when she had posted promotional images to social medial, users had engaged in a coordinated effort to kill her brand deals.
