Both Rob Lowe and Jessica Gibson had important parts of their cases thrown out in court – and if you ask their attorneys, they both won.
The judge threw out Jessica’s retaliation claim, but the judge also tossed out four Lowe claims – one being an allegation of defamation.
Jessica Gibson’s attorney, Gloria Allred, said in a statement:
“He lost the heart of his case, which is defamation, and we are permitted to proceed with the heart of our case, which was and still is our allegation that Rob Lowe sexually harassed Jessica Gibson.”
Lowe’s attorney, Larry Stein, told celebrity news site TMZ:
“We are delighted with the court’s ruling today. It removed the retaliation claim, which Ms. Allred had been focusing on and left in six claims, which allows us to prosecute every claim we’ve made.”
Well, that settles that. Only not at all. She still says he spanked it in front of her, he says she skanked it in front of everyone, etc.
