Former Abercrombie & Fitch CEO Michael Jeffries has initiated legal proceedings against his former company, asserting that Abercrombie is obligated to cover his legal expenses in an ongoing sex trafficking case. Jeffries contends that the indemnification agreement, allegedly requiring the company to cover the legal costs, remains binding due to charges claiming he used his “power as CEO” to engage in the purported unethical activities.
