American actor Jamie Foxx is in trouble after a woman filed sexual assault and battery charges at the New York State Supreme Court this week.
According to reports, the alleged incident took place eight years ago at Catch NYC, a popular New York City restaurant.
The woman, who has been identified as Jane Doe, says in the court papers that Foxx intentionally and without consent used force to offensively touch her.
Complainant seeks unspecified amount
The papers further state that Foxx groped the woman’s breasts and genitals and that he seemed to be intoxicated at the time of the incident.
“At one point, Foxx roughly grabbed the plaintiff’s phone out of her hand and took additional photographs,” read the court papers in part.
“Foxx then made several comments to the plaintiff including ‘wow, you have that supermodel body; you smell so good, and you look like Nickie’.
“When the plaintiff asked who’s Nickie, Foxx replied: Gabrielle Union. Foxx proceeded to grab the plaintiff by her arm and pulled her to the back area of the rooftop.”
The complaint states that the woman suffered and continues to suffer physical and emotional injuries, anxiety, distress, embarrassment and economic harm.
She seeks an unspecified amount.
The plaintiff is also suing the restaurant company, Catch Hospitality Group, and various related business entities for negligent hiring, training and supervision.
