Viewers are probably still spinning from Monday's (July 12) episode of "The Real Housewives of New Jersey" when all hell broke loose at a fashion show.

We've never seen so much fur fly (and we're not talking about Danielle's Staub's weave) on reality TV since the infamous table-flipping episode. In the end, no one was arrested, but Jacqueline Laurita's daughter, Ashley, did get fined $189 by a court for pulling Danielle's "hair."

Apparently that wasn't enough for the former jailbird. Danielle's lawyer spoke to Hollywood Life and said that they're pursuing a lawsuit against Teresa Giudice, Jacqueline Laurita and Ashley, and anyone else involved in the incident.

"We are going to use this footage and prepare a case against these women," Danielle's attorney, Paul Giblin, told the site. "We are seeking assault and battery charges, defamation of character and punitive damages as well."

The attorney also said they'll be asking a judge for restraining orders against the women. Zap2it spoke to Jacqueline about the legal threat.

"You can't defame someone who defames herself," Jacqueline told us. "I have not told any lies about her. I never physically touched her or threatened her, so I am not worried."

Jacqueline feels that this is just Danielle being a media whore. "She will do anything, and I mean anything, to stay in the press," she says. "I think she's pathetic and desperate. Maybe she has a fear that she won't be asked to return next year so she's grasping at straws to keep a connection between us. I don't know."

Well, we think it will be pretty hard for Danielle to shoot the show next season if half the cast has restraining orders against them. She might want to rethink that one.
