Former Real Housewives of New Jersey star Danielle Staub's sex tape just won't go away. A judge ruled against Staub in her motion to dismiss a lawsuit she claims to be frivolous, filed by her ex-boyfriend Stephen Zalewski in court on Friday.

Her ex-boyfriend Stephen Zalewski filed a suit in 2010 for defamation of character and harassment after Staub claimed that he filmed a sex tape without her knowledge or consent.

Her attorney told Radar Online, “Stephen never hid a camera. Accusing someone of hiding cameras is terrible. It’s not only defamatory; it is a third degree crime in New Jersey.”

“We were pleased that the judge said the case was not frivolous,” he continued. “The main thing that we want to happen is for Danielle to stop making these statements. I don’t think she gets it so I want her to realize that there are consequences for her actions.”
