Overview
- Jane Doe filed the lawsuit under New York's Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Law, which allows previously time-barred claims to be brought forward until March 1, 2025.
- The plaintiff alleges a pattern of sexual harassment from 2000 to 2002, culminating in an alleged rape by Liles in 2002 after she rejected his advances.
- The lawsuit accuses Universal Music Group and Def Jam of enabling Liles' behavior by failing to address his alleged misconduct despite being aware of it.
- Kevin Liles has denied the allegations, calling them 'outrageous' and stating his intention to clear his name through legal action.
- The lawsuit follows a previous case in which Liles was named as a defendant in a $25 million sexual assault lawsuit related to singer Trey Songz, which was settled in 2024.
