Just when we think Erin Andrews is past her stalker tragedy, more things rise to the surface.

Andrews has filed a civil lawsuit in the State Court of Chicago against a string of hotels.  In the suit, Andrews claims that the hotels, which include Marriott and Radisson, let her stalker know her room number and allowed him to check in to adjacent rooms to hers.  The stalker of Andrews, Michael David Barrett, taped the ESPN star through modified peepholes in her hotel doors.

“Erin filed the lawsuit to send a message to hotel chains that they need to exercise greater care in protecting their guests. She was seriously harmed by what happened there,” said Andrews’ attorney Marshall Grossman to TMZ in an interview.

Hopefully this pans out for Andrews.

 Earlier this month the courts shut down an attempt by ESPN to collect over $300,000 from Barrett for the extra expenses they had to pay (mainly for security) because of Barrett’s actions.  Barrett claimed to be “penniless” and felt he shouldn’t foot the bill for a third party.  The documents filed in California’s District Court seemed to agree, stating that ESPN voluntarily paid for all costs in respect to Andrews.

The blond journalist was most recently seen competing on the popular reality show Dancing with the Stars where she placed third.
