As Bill Cosby faced criminal sexual-assault charges in a Pennsylvania courthouse on Tuesday, t was good news and bad news for him in civil court in Los Angeles.
Chloe Goins, the youngest and most recent of Cosby’s five-dozen accusers, dropped her civil suit against him, according to the Associated Press, which cited federal court records showing the suit was dropped without explanation.
Depositions have not been good for Cosby: His testimony in a deposition in a civil suit filed by an accuser in 2005 played a role in the filing of the criminal charges against him in Pennsylvania.
The Los Angeles district attorney declined last month to file charges against Cosby in connection with Goins’ accusations because the California statute of limitations for sexual assault had expired.
She had earlier filed a civil suit in federal court against Cosby alleging sexual battery.
Cosby has been charged with felony indecent sexual assault in Montgomery County, Pa., in connection with an encounter at his home t in 2004 – the only criminal charge filed against him so far.
