Paul Sherradeer, the scriptwriter “Taxi Driver” and “Raging Bull”, was accused of a legal file of his former assistant sexual harassment, and a retreat from an agreement to pay a settlement for it.
The 26 -year -old woman, who was known only as Jinn, claims that Sharra Sheikh caught and accepted against her will while she was at the Cannes Festival last year at the premiere of his last movie, “Oh, Canada.” She needed and managed to free herself and escape from the room.
Three days later, she claimed that Sharra, 78, called her to his room at the hotel, claiming that he was “dying”, then revealed his penis for her.
Women’s lawyer claims that a Schwidar lawyer agreed to a cash settlement, but after “searching for a spirit” has retracted the deal. They submitted a request at the New York State Court to impose the terms of the agreement, and to recover the legal fees and costs.
Sharader’s lawyer told Philip Kisler, diverse On Friday, given that Shreradeer did not sign the settlement, it cannot be imposed.
He said, “We consider this violation to demand the contract desperate, opportunistic and ventilation.”
Kisler also claimed that calculating the basic harassment allegations “loaded with precision” and “financially misleading”. He said that over a period of work for three and a half years, the assistant went to many dinner and festivals with Sharrara.
Kisler said: “In any of these cases, the plaintiff pointed to anything other than enthusiasm about appearing with Mr. Sharra Sheikh.”
He also said that the woman had positively spoken of a cushion on social media, and that the positions were removed at a time when her lawyers sent the initial request letter.
In the deposit, the woman claims that Sharra is repeatedly declared his love for her and his desire to touch her, so he fled and writing. The quote quotes from the emails that it has been sent to.
“I feel uncomfortable with an emotional presence for you,” he wrote in May 2023. “Sometimes I feel a feeling (not today) that you are afraid to touch you … I am dealing with the thought that you are afraid to address.”
During her work, the woman claims that she had to withstand “inappropriate inappropriate sexual questions and hate comments for women.”
Her lawyers claim that she was expelled in September because she refused to be satisfied with the progress of Sharra. In subsequent months, her lawyers put an arrangement for a cure to pay a secret amount to solve her allegations.
However, they claim that Sharra is postponing the signing of the agreement. After a delay for several weeks, her lawyers claim, Sherrade said that he had a disease and decided that he “could not live with himself” if he accepted the agreement.
Women’s lawyers claim that the agreement was binding.
