Paris Hilton Works It Outside The Courthouse - Photos

Paris Hilton transformed a court appearance into an impromptu catwalk show on Thursday.

Dressed to impress in a black and white panelled dress, the heiress struck a series of model poses as she left the Federal Courthouse with her legal team and bodyguards.

The heiress had just attended a court date with a federal judge in Miami, for a trial in which she's accused of not promoting her flop 2006 movie National Lampoon's 'Pledge This!'

The flick - about an all-female sorority house - is currently languishing at #30 on IMDB's worst movie's list as voted for by users. Her 2008 film The Hottie and the Nottie is at #57.

At worst, Paris' latest legal battle could set her back $8 million.

With yesterday's performance, we'd say the movie is getting more publicity than ever but is it too little, too late?
