A representative for Tina Fey has denied allegations that the actress failed to obtain workers' compensation insurance for her New York employees.
'30 Rock' star was slapped with a USD 79,000 bill for the alleged offence, reported Contactmusic.
Workers' Compensation Board chiefs filed the lawsuit against Fey in the State Supreme Court in Manhattan on March 20 in relation to her duties as an employer, claiming she did not have the required insurance for her staff for more than a year, starting from 20 November, 2012.
However, Fey's spokeswoman, Cara Tripicchio, insists the allegations are unfounded, stating that the actress "has proper and current insurance covering all employees and at no time has workers' compensation lapsed.
