Michael Egan, who has made claims that Bryan Singer and other Hollywood leaders committed sexual abuse, has dropped his lawsuit against former Disney TV executive, David Neuman. Suits against Singer, Garth Ancier and former Imagineer Gary Goddard are still active.
Neuman’s lawyer, Patricia Glaser, had this to say about the lawsuit’s dismissal:
“This evening the completely unfounded and 100% false charges against our client David A. Neuman, were dismissed. Today’s news affirms to everyone that David Neuman’s fine reputation deserves to stand strong and was attacked with no merit.
In as much as we celebrate the truth this evening, we will hold accountable those who wrongly created the hurt and damage by making outrageous, untruthful assertions that cannot be undone.
We question seriously the underlying prejudices and motives in targeting David Neuman with this groundless and defamatory action.
Today’s dismissal exposes this despicable lawsuit for what it really was: an unethical smearing and failed shakedown of a completely innocent man.”
