NEW YORK - Lindsay Lohan is being sued by a New York City college student who claims the "Mean Girls" actress took her mink coat without permission and kept it for more than two weeks.

Maria Markova says in a lawsuit that the 21-year-old Lohan took the $12,000 golden sheared mink coat while in the Chelsea nightclub 1 Oak on Jan. 26, 2008.

The 22-year-old Markova's lawyer, Merrill Cohen, says Lohan had been sitting next to her client. Cohen said Markova next saw her coat on Lohan in a photo in OK! Magazine.

Cohen says she called Lohan's people and demanded the coat. She says Markova got the coat back on Feb. 14.

Cohen says the lawsuit she filed in Manhattan's state Supreme Court asks unspecified damages.

Lohan's lawyer Blair Berk said it would be inappropriate to comment on the case.
