Hollywood actress, Ashley Judd, whose acting career got off to a great start, has sued disgraced movie mogul and rapist, Harvey Weinstein. Judd contends in her lawsuit that she lost prominent roles in films due to "false information" Weinstein provided to directors and casting agents, in malicious, deliberate acts at having her removed from movies, because she rebuffed his sexual advances.

Weinstein defamed Judd as difficult to work with, destroying her name to many Hollywood directors and casting agents. This resulted in Judd losing jobs and her once hot career cooling right off. Weinstein's conduct cost Judd income. Judd has easily demonstrable damages, as her career and finances suffered as a direct result of Weinstein's misbehavior.

The statute of limitations would normally bar such a case, as the case arises from misconduct that occurred 20-years ago. However, Judd can argue in court that she just found out about the blacklisting, as men such as "Lord Of The Rings" director, Pete Jackson, just came forward revealing what Weinstein had done. Judd can also argue that Weinstein's conduct has been ongoing for years, reboot the statute of limitations with each new illegal act on his part.

But Ms. Judd has an A-list director on her side: Peter Jackson, who came forward in December to say that he removed her from a casting list “as a direct result” of what he now thought was “false information” provided by Mr. Weinstein. Until then, according to the lawsuit, Ms. Judd did not know that “something unseen was holding her back from obtaining the work she wanted, and had been doing so for decades.”

The suit, filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, involves Mr. Jackson’s “Lord of the Rings” films, the first of which was released in 2001. Mr. Jackson had wanted to cast Ms. Judd in a prominent role in the series. But Mr. Weinstein “torpedoed Ms. Judd’s incredible professional opportunity,” according to the complaint, by falsely telling Mr. Jackson that Ms. Judd was a “nightmare” who should be avoided “at all costs.”...
