More hotel lawsuits happening this week. This time The Westin Bonaventure in downtown LA is suing crazy Phil Spector for stiffing them out of more than a $100,000.

TMZ, getting back to celebrity justice basics, reports:

In the suit, filed today in L.A. County Superior Court, the Westin Bonaventure Hotel & Suites says they reserved rooms for the music producer's lawyers and expert witnesses during the trial. After seven months of trial, the hotel alleges, Spector had racked up a bill to the tune of more than $104,000.

Apparently, Spector didn't pay the bill because he was hoping to get some sort of steep discount. Now the hotel has sued Spector, his wife and his agent. Looks like Spector will have to find some new digs before his second trial begins in September. The first trial in which he stood accused of killing Lana Clarkson ended in a mistrial.
