Kevin Spacey `deeply thankful´
after winning US civil lawsuit


[Kevin Spacey is “deeply thankful” after
winning his US civil lawsuit against
actor Anthony Rapp, who had accused
him of an “unwanted sexual advance”
at a party in 1986.
Lawyers on behalf of the Hollywood actor
said justice had been done following
the “swift and decisive verdict”,
which was returned on Thursday in his favour.
A jury at United States District Court
for the Southern District of New York
took less than two hours to
return their decision.]





[Mr Rapp sued the actor for battery and
intentional infliction of emotional distress
in November 2020,
though during the trial Judge Kaplan
dismissed the latter claim.
Throughout the course of the trial,
both Mr Rapp and Mr Spacey took
the stand,
with the American Beauty star repeatedly
rejecting suggestions that he was not telling
the truth when he denied the claims.]
