Anthony Rapp filed his claim under New York’s Child Victims Act, which allows victims of childhood abuse to file civil suits against their alleged abuser.
Former “House of Cards” crew members who testified Kevin Spacey sexually harassed them while working on the popular Netflix show could be pulled into an ongoing civil suit against the disgraced actor.
According to the November 2021 arbitration petition, Spacey breached the show’s harassment policies, which led to Spacey’s suspension, and eventually, the demise of the Netflix series. “All of these witnesses allegedly expressed concern, directly or through counsel, that they might suffer if their names and their involvement in the arbitration were to become public,” Kaplan wrote in the order. “All allegedly received some assurances in that regard.”
Rapp and another man filed a lawsuit in 2020 accusing Spacey of sexual assaults in the 1980s when they were teenagers.
