Elvis Presley's ex-wife is mired in litigation over her handling of her name, image and likeness rights.

Brigitte Kruse and Kevin Fialko filed the lawsuit Monday in Los Angeles Superior Court. Among many other allegations, they say Presley used them to financially exploit her name, image and likeness, hiding the fact that she had sold those rights decades earlier.

Presley's attorney called the lawsuit "a sad and vicious attempt to falsely tarnish the reputation of an eighty-year-old woman."
