Prince Andrew asks US court to dismiss case
Prince Andrew has asked a New York court to dismiss a legal action brought against him by Virginia Giuffre.

New Delhi, 30 October 2021

As per news report of BBC, the Duke of York's lawyers said the "baseless lawsuit" should be dismissed because Ms Giuffre failed to sufficiently outline her claims against him. Ms Giuffre, 38, has accused Prince Andrew of sexually assaulting her when she was 17 and a minor under US law. The Queen's 61-year-old son has consistently denied the allegations. If a dismissal is not granted, Ms Giuffre should provide a "more definitive statement" of her allegations, lawyers for Prince Andrew said. In September, the duke accepted that he had been served legal papers in the case and he had to respond to the lawsuit by 29 October.
