On October 13, 2006, WTAE-TV News in Pittsburgh, PA reported that Banks was filing a federal lawsuit against a sex toy manufacturer, claiming the company violated an agreement to make molds of her genitals. Briana Banks' lawsuit claims Doc Johnson Enterprises made 10 unauthorized products from those reproductions. Banks claimed the agreement was that the company would only make two. Banks seeks more than $75,000 in damages. The lawyer for Doc Johnson Enterprises said the suit is a desperate attempt for Banks to get her name in the news. The story also referred to Banks as a "local porn star", leading one to believe she currently resides somewhere within the Allegheny County region of Pennsylvania.
