Kevin Spacey Headed to Trial in U.K. Again Over Civil Sexual Assault Claim


Kevin Spacey is being sued by a man who claims the actor sexually assaulted him in 2008.

The actor is set to face a civil trial in the U.K. after being sued by a man who alleges Spacey sexually assaulted him. The man — who has been granted anonymity by the court — claims he “suffered psychiatric damage and other financial loss” as a result of the sexual assault, which took place in August 2008. The actor’s legal team was back in court on Tuesday morning to set aside a default judgment in favor of the claimant after Spacey’s solicitors failed to file his defence in time.
