LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- American Express is accusing rocker Courtney Love of failing to pay her bills, but a lawyer for the former Hole front lady told Access Hollywood the case "has no merit."

On Wednesday, American Express filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles seeking $352,059.67 for Love's unpaid balance, damages, attorney's fees and late charges to the rocker's credit cards.

According to the lawsuit, Love's charging privileges have been suspended and she has "failed and refused" to make payments.

Not true, says an attorney for the rock star. The attorney claims there are charges on her credit cards that were never made by Love.

"Amex knows the claim has no merit," Love's attorney said in a statement released to Access. "We have told them this for a long time. Amex's law policies allowed fraudulent transactions to be charged to my client's card."

    Seriously you think Courtney killed him?? Get a life have you even heard his music and seen how sad of a person he was? I don't care who you knew Courtney didn't do it, leave her alone.

    Yo - Big Joe... Research it for yourself. It is all over the web. Courtney DID have Kurt killed. He had told her he was filing for divorce. Before calling other members of this forum "stupid" why not research the facts for yourself? The internet is actually good for other things than viscerally living through those who are "famous". I knew El Duce. I'd

    I have a RED Lawnmower. Courtney is absolutely of instigating and paying for Kurt's murder. I knew El Duce from 1980. He made public that he was offered $$ to kill kurt then turning it down. He was bad drunk, however, he didn't park his truck on the train tracks where he was killed after telling his story. Tis woman is capable of anything and probably will get away with Kurt

    Oh, don't get me wrong. Kurt would have done himself in eventually. She just got to him first.

    You are stupid idiots saying Courtney killed her husband. Before you make such ignorant accusations, you should educate yourself about the late talented musician's death. He had a horrible drug problem and severe depression which ultimately led to his death. Courtney implemented an "intervention" and was the one who sent a friend to find him after he became missing. B
