Jeffrey Lemerond, 31, claims that his rights were violated when he made a brief appearance in the film which starred Sacha Baron Cohen in the role of Borat Sadiyev.
The man explained that he never gave his permission to be filmed, and that he has been ridiculed since being filmed running away from Borat, who was trying to hug him in the street. Lemerond says he has suffered, "as a result of defendant’s outrageous and illegal conducts."
