Marlon Brando is being sued for a quarter of everything he left when he died over claims he was a sex pest.

The actor's former business manager has filed a £1.8million suit, claiming he continually sexually harassed her during the three years she worked for him.

Jo An Corrales also says Brando sacked her months before his death because she refused to commit tax fraud, and that he owed her £265,000 in unpaid wages.

The Godfather star - whose estate is worth about £7million - died from lung failure in July last year, aged 80.

In papers lodged at Los Angeles Superior-Court, Corrales accuses him of creating-a 'hostile work environment due to his continuous acts of sexual harassment.'

The documents add: 'The creditor's employment was wrongfully terminated as a result of her refusal to participate in INS fraud.'

Thrice-married Brando left nine children. Several people have made claims against the Oscar winner's estate following his death. His former caretaker, Angela Magaling, is seeking redundancy and a house in LA's San Fernando Valley.
