The case was thrown out of court on Friday due to how documents were obtained.
Saturday 11 June in the United Kingdom.
The Las Vegas rape lawsuit has been dismissed.
The woman claimed that he raped her in Las Vegas.
The case was thrown out of court on Friday due to the way documents were obtained.
The judge said that dismissing a case with no option to file it again is a severe sanction, but that the woman's lawyer had hurt her.
The case had to be permanently dismissed because Mr. Stovall had used "misappropriated documents" which were woven into the fabric of the case.
She found that the procurement and continued use of the documents was bad faith.
"Simply disqualifying Stovall won't cure the prejudice because the misappropriated documents and their confidential contents have been woven into the very fabric of the lawsuit"
The ruling stated that penalties are merited.
I firmly deny the accusations being issued against me. Rape is a crime that I don't believe in.
According to his legal team, the sexual encounter was consensual and that a confidentiality agreement prevents both his team and the woman from discussing it.
The decision could be appealed by the woman's legal team.
