PR executive sues for funds

Andrea Gale, doing business as Silvergale Media & Marketing, sued Composite Power Corp. of Las Vegas, alleging she is owed an unspecified amount of money for public relations services.

Composite Power replied that it and a shareholder have already paid Gale $27,785 for services and expenses and that it owes her no more money.

Gale promoted Composite Power's proposed "Nevada Green Energy Project" that would include solar, wind and geothermal generating resources. CPC, however, expressed dissatisfaction with her work.

Gale's attorney, Robert Weaver, said Gale completed the work requested of her and circumstances beyond her control affected the results of the public relations campaign.
