Rose McGowan's lawsuit against Harvey Weinstein dismissed after failing to meet court deadline

Rose McGowan’s lawsuit against harvey-weinstein” target=”_blank”>Harvey Weinstein< that the disgraced movie mogul had raped her in 1997 while they were at the Sundance Film Festival. Hers was among the many shocking allegations from several women who came forward with similar claims of sexual misconduct on the part of Weinstein that ultimately led to his 2020 rape conviction

In October 2019, McGowan brought more allegations against Weinstein, alleging that he used his financial power to discredit her allegations when he learned that she would be publishing them in detail in her 2018 book, “Brave.” She believes that Weinstein’s actions, which included his ex-attorneys Lisa Bloom and David Boies as well as the spy and intelligence firm Black Cube Strategies, violated the Racketeering Influenced Corrupt Organizations Act.

However, it seems that the case will not be moving forward after McGowan failed to supply the court with more documented proof of her case by a proposed deadline. According to the documents, McGowan was told on Nov. 9 that she had until Dec. 2 to file more documents in the case or until Dec. 3 to file a supplemental brief in accordance with the court’s instructions. 

“As of today’s date, Plaintiff has not filed any brief in response to the Court’s Order and Minute Order. Accordingly, Plaintiff is deemed to have conceded the two points the Court gave her opportunity to argue in the supplemental brief,” the documents read. “Accordingly, the Court concludes that Plaintiff is unable to sufficiently plead a RICO claim, meaning that further amendment would be futile.”

Neither representatives for McGowan nor Weinstein immediately responded to Fox News’ request for comment.

McGowan claimed the Black Cube representative of sorts, known to McGowan as Diana Filip, posed as a women’s advocate as a ruse to gain her trust and illegally recorded their conversations and even accessed a version of the actress’ book on her computer.
