LOS ANGELES, California (CNN) -- Carrie Prejean's lawyer gave Miss California USA executive director Keith Lewis what he said was a final warning to retract statements made about the former beauty queen or face a defamation lawsuit.
Prejean, stripped of the Miss California USA title last week, "suffered severe emotional distress" and her reputation was harmed by Lewis, Charles LiMandri said in a letter sent Thursday to Lewis' lawyer.
He told CNN's Larry King last week that it wasn't one thing Prejean did, but "many, many, many things."
Lewis told King it was clear "she was not interested in upholding the title or the responsibilities."
In response to the letter, Lewis issued a statement that said: "Mr. LiMandri obviously has never watched 'The Apprentice' if he believes that Mr. Trump could be so easily fooled. Facts are facts, and we stand by them."
The list Lewis gave to reporters of Prejean's missed appearances was "an outright fraud," he said.
