DUFF HIRES SELF

Socialite Patricia Duff has a new lawyer in her latest tussle with billionaire Revlon boss Ron Perelman – herself.

A Manhattan judge yesterday granted Duff’s request to represent herself in matters regarding custody and visitation rights in the long running case involving the couple’s 13-year-old daughter Caleigh – but only after warning her several times of the dangers.

Caleigh’s court appointed guardian had asked for an order of protection against Duff, but Richter chose yesterday not to alter the current custody agreement.
