                    [Summary] => LOS ANGELES  (AFP) — A California jury on Thursday awarded $551,000 in damages to a Filipina immigrant who claimed she was kept as a domestic slave for a year by a Hollywood movie executive.


Former schoolteacher Nena Ruiz testified in a civil trial that James Jackson, Sony Pictures Entertainment’s vice president of legal affairs, and his wife refused to allow her to leave their employ, paid her a pittance and made her sleep in a dog’s bed.

Base sa naging desisyon ng Los Angeles Superior Court Jury, pinaboran lahat ang mga inihaing reklamo ng Pinay na si Nena Ruiz, 61, dating guro, gaya ng "involuntary servitude, false imprisonment, invasion of privacy, negligence at wage violations" laban sa kanyang among si James Jackson, vice president for legal affairs ng kilalang Sony Pictures Entertainment sa Hollywood at sa asawa nitong si Elizabeth.


Mula sa nasabing halaga, US$275,000 dito ay kabayaran sa mga hindi natanggap na suweldo ni Ruiz mula sa mag-asawa.


Sa sinumpaang testimonya ni Ruiz, sinabi nito na mula noong Pebrero 2001 ay hindi na siya pinayagang makalabas pa sa tirahan ng mga Jackson matapos na itago ang kanyang pasaporte at ibang travel documents.
