Cuba Gooding Jr. settles civil sexual assault case out of court.

Actor Cuba Gooding Jr. has settled a $6 million lawsuit accusing him of raping a woman in a New York hotel in 2013, just before the trial was set to begin. Gooding's lawyers claimed the sex was consensual, but the accuser, identified only as Jane Doe, alleged that he pushed her to the bed and raped her. The woman had been pursuing the case anonymously, but last week Judge Paul Crotty ruled that she would need to reveal her name at the trial. Gooding has faced similar accusations from dozens of women, and three women were set to testify at the trial.

Cuba Gooding Jr. Settles Rape Case Out of Court.

Actor Cuba Gooding Jr. settled a $6 million civil suit filed against him in 2020 by an anonymous woman who accused him of raping her in 2013 at a New York hotel. The settlement was reached just before jury selection was set to begin. Gooding's lawyers argued that the encounter was consensual. The case would have also brought to light testimony from three other women who accused Gooding of nonconsensual sexual encounters. Gooding has so far avoided two trials for his alleged offenses, and after six months in treatment, he was permitted to retract his plea and plead guilty to noncriminal harassment.

Cuba Gooding Jr. settles civil rape lawsuit before trial.

Actor Cuba Gooding Jr. and his accuser have reached a settlement in the federal civil case against him, which alleged rape in 2013. The trial was set to begin on Tuesday, but was cancelled after the settlement. The accuser had filed the claim under the New York City “Victims of Gender-Motivated Violence Protection Law” and had sought anonymity. However, a federal judge ruled that she must identify herself in an amended complaint, which led to the case falling apart. Gooding had previously pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of forcibly touching a woman at a New York City nightclub in 2018.

Cuba Gooding Jr. begins civil trial for rape accusation.

Actor Cuba Gooding Jr. is set to face a civil rape trial in Manhattan over a lawsuit alleging he raped a woman twice at a Soho hotel a decade ago. The trial is expected to last between three to four days and will depend on whether the jury finds the encounter was consensual. Gooding has been accused of sexual misconduct by at least 30 women and was given a no-jail plea deal last year on six counts of sexual abuse for allegedly groping three women in separate incidents in Manhattan. At least three other Gooding accusers are expected to take the stand to bolster the woman’s case by showing her claims are credible since the actor has a history of alleged sexual misconduct.
