Naomi Campbell made an extremely brief appearance in a Manhattan courtroom this morning. Naomi was there with her attorneys to work on a plea bargain in relation to charges that she beat down her maid with a crystallized-blackberry. The real mess occurred outside. Campbell, attorney David Breitbart and Campbell's small retinue were forced to hide inside the courthouse for about five minutes until a car arrived to take them away from the media horde. When Campbell's case was called, prosecutor Shanda Strain told the judge that no grand jury action had been taken in the case. The defense then agreed to an adjournment pending a possible plea deal, and Laporte ordered everyone to return to court on Sept. 27. To make matters worse, another maid filed a lawsuit against her yesterday. The maid claims that Naomi beat her down and cursed at her back in January.
