A $40m (£28.8m) sexual assault lawsuit against Kevin Spacey will not go ahead unless his accuser reveals his identity, a judge ruled.
On Monday (3 May), US district judge Lewis A Kaplan ruled that CD, who is seeking more than $40m in damages from Spacey, cannot proceed anonymously in the court.
He also said that CD’s anonymity could prevent individuals with information that might support Spacey from knowing to come forward.
