Steven Tyler Sexual Assault Lawsuit Dismissed By Judge, Citing Decades-Long Delay By Alleged Victim


A Steven Tyler sexual assault lawsuit was dismissed by a judge who ruled the alleged victim waited too long to sue the Aerosmith singer.

A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit accusing Aerosmith singer Steven Tyler of sexually assaulting a teenage girl decades ago, ruling that she had waited too long to bring her case. “The complaint in this case does not alleged conduct presenting a serious risk of physical injury and therefore fails to state a legally sufficient claim under the [NYC statute],” the judge wrote. In their motion to dismiss the case, his lawyers argued Bellino could not use the New York City newly-enacted statute to sue over “purported sexual misconduct that occurred nearly half a century ago.”
