A woman publicist whose complaints led to the resignation of David Jones chief executive Mark McInnes is suing him and the department store for more than A$37 million ($46 million).
In her statement of claim filed in the Federal Court yesterday, Kristy Anne Fraser-Kirk says McInnes made unwelcome sexual advances and comments to her at a May 23 lunch and at a June 7 function.
She is claiming punitive damages of about A$37 million, being 5 per cent of McInnes' salary and 5 per cent of the profits during the time he worked there.
If successful in her claim, she wants the money to go a charity, nominated by her, helping people in the area of sexual harassment and bullying.
