Former basketball star gives deposition in lawsuit

As part of a federal lawsuit against him, Rodman spent about two hours answering questions behind closed doors Monday.

Gloria Chapa claims Rodman pinched and grabbed her breasts while he was seated at a gambling table in June 1998. She filed the lawsuit in July 1999 against Rodman and her employer.

"He vehemently denied all the allegations," said Rodman's Las Vegas attorney Corey Eschweiler.

When Rodman failed to show up for the original court-ordered deposition at the federal courthouse in downtown Las Vegas on Nov. 21 it was rescheduled for Monday.
