What is a lawsuit against Jamie Foxx?

According to the lawsuit, the actor seemed drunk when he agreed to a picture, stating, “Sure, baby, anything for you.” It goes on to say that he said the woman smelt “so good” and had a “supermodel body”.

The lawsuit also seeks damages from restaurant and bar owner Mark Birnbaum, who the accuser claims was sitting with Mr Foxx soon before the alleged assault.

According to the lawsuit, Mr. Mark and the restaurant’s workers violated their duty of care to the victim by neglecting to safeguard her.

The lawsuit states that the woman suffered and continues to suffer from extreme mental distress and anxiety, shame, embarrassment, and post-traumatic stress disorder. As well as other physical and emotional damages as a result of the “heinous acts.”

The legal action comes just days before the New York Adult Survivors Act expires on November 24. It allows alleged victims of sex crimes to sue after the statute of limitations has expired.
