The Fifth Court of Instruction of the National District has ordered court hearings for the case of fashion designer Jorge Diep against fashion promoter Tita Hasbun (Carmen Amada Marina Pichardo Escoto de Hasbun), her husband Omar, and Virgilio Hasbun Saladin (Billy) for allegedly using a document signed under private signature for the company Republica Dominicana Fashion Week. In previous years, the designer had worked with the Hasbuns to present the event.

Judge Ileana Perez ordered the case be heard in court after establishing that the accused had violated Art. 148 of the Penal Code. Diep complained that the accused had forged and altered his signature to remove him from the company he created. Diep founded the Dominican Republic Fashion Week, a weeklong event that has served to bring leading international designers to the Dominican market for runway shows, as well as launching emerging Dominican fashion designers. Diep says that Hasbun created her company Caribbean Fashion Week Republica Dominicana on the base of the name he had created: Republica Dominicana Fashion Week for the organization of the event.
