Slama had only been working at the W. 28th St. club for a short time when she said Malhotra,
a lawyer, cornered her in a storeroom and demanded
she let him do a line off her rear end.

Nicole Slama was granted a default judgment of $3.5 million six years after her co-worker forcibly snorted cocaine off of her shoulder after wanting to snort it off of her rear and breast.

Who’s snorting now?

A Manhattan waitress is getting the last laugh on the creepy nightclub owner she says snorted cocaine off her shoulder and then licked her neck.

Nicole Slama has been granted a default judgment in her $3.5 million lawsuit against former Quo co-owner Gary Malhotra, six years after the icky encounter.

“It’s been very difficult to deal with this for so many years, but it would have been more difficult to let him get away with what he did,” Slama told the Daily News.


Slama had only been working at the W. 28th St. club for a short time when she said Malhotra, a lawyer, cornered her in a storeroom and demanded she let him do a line off her rear end.

She pushed him away, but he grabbed her breast and said, “OK, off your (breast) then,” according to the suit.

Slama charged that when she said “No!” and tried to get out again, he pinned her against the wall. She said he then did the line off her shoulder and licked her neck. “You have to let me, ’cause I’m your boss,” she quoted him as saying. She immediately went to cops, who arrested him for forcible touching and sexual abuse.

He was sentenced to five days’ community service — but managed to stall her civil suit for years, claiming he was in the process of appealing the criminal conviction.

Slama’s lawyer, Megan Goddard, said he never actually filed the appeal, and she got the stay lifted after his deadline for filing one expired. Justice Cynthia Kern found him and the company that owned the club in default. An inquest will be held next year to determine money damages for Slama. Quo was shuttered in 2011.
