Star Trek: The Next Generation star Levar Burton is facing a lawsuit from bosses of a U.S. supermarket chain who have accused the actor of failing to pay $2,000 (£1,330) in grocery bills.
In a suit filed last month, lawyers for the Los Angeles food store Gelson's allege Burton has had an account with the company since 1990 but has failed to pay his tab since 2008.
Gelson's executives are suing Burton for $2,000 (£1,330) plus attorney's fees, reports TMZ.com.
