The lawsuit accuses Douglass 'Doug' Ghee of sexual assault, battery, extortion, intentional inflicting of emotional distress, false imprisonment and wantonness.

Ghee, 78 , allegedly met with a 29-year-old woman in July as a public defender while she was incarcerated at the Calhoun County Jail , in the eastern part of the state.

He allegedly promised to use his friendship with the judge and assistant district attorney on her case to help her get a better deal, as long as she agreed to be his 'sex slave' and pay him $ 2,500 .

The woman's lawyers say she cannot initiate a criminal case against Ghee until she has a new judge assigned.
