Billionaire William Koch is facing a lawsuit in federal court from a former top-level employee who claims the energy mogul lured him to a secluded property, where he was imprisoned and interrogated for a period of time, according to a report in Courthouse News.

John Houston Scott, an attorney for Kirby Martenson, a former executive for a number of Koch subsidiaries, confirmed the story to HuffPost, adding that he guessed the case could go to trial in a year.

The case was filed in San Francisco, where the Republican-backing Kochs are not deeply popular.

Edited to add link, but am still having trouble figuring out how to do this. For some reason, it doesn't show up. Damn!

1. Looks like a civil suit over a real corporate mess

Allegations and counter allegations are going to be flying all over the place unless Billy settles out of court.

My guess is that Martensen is not going for it.
