Lifestyle guru MARTHA STEWART has been targeted in a new lawsuit
accusing her company of making defective furniture that caused a hand
model to lose his finger.

In a lawsuit filed on Monday (17Nov08) against Kmart Corp. and
Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia, Patrick Albanese - a hand model and
magician - claims he was moving the Martha Stewart Everyday lounge
chair in June (08) when its front legs collapsed, slicing his right
index finger.

The fingertip had to be reattached by a surgeon, according to Albanese's attorney, Guy Cook.

Cook says, "He's a very accomplished musician and as part of his work, he does various slight-of-hand tricks."

Albanese is seeking compensation for past and future medical expenses,
physical and mental pain and suffering, permanent partial disfigurement
and loss of earning capacity.

Spokespersons for Kmart and Martha Stewart Living have declined to comment.
