AceShowbiz - Kevin Spacey has urged the judge overseeing his sexual battery lawsuit to toss the case again - and force his accuser to pay his legal bills.
According to court documents obtained by The Blast, Spacey has denied all allegations of wrongdoing in the case brought against him by an unidentified male.
Asking the judge to dismiss the case quickly, the Oscar winner insists his accuser "suffered no damages attributable to any wrongful conduct" by him, insisting the plaintiff is owed no damages.
"I did not engage in any wrongful conduct, let alone wrongful conduct with malice or reckless disregard to Plaintiff's rights and feelings," Spacey writes.
The plaintiff is a masseuse, who filed a lawsuit against the disgraced actor last year (18), accusing him of misconduct during a massage session at a private residence in Malibu, California in 2016. He alleged "The Usual Suspects" actor tried to kiss him and forced him to grab his genitals.
Spacey's attorneys previously asked Judge Ronald Lew to dismiss the lawsuit as the plaintiff filed his complaint anonymously, but Lew ruled that, as a sexual assault victim in a high-profile case, the man should remain anonymous to protect his privacy.
