Previously, Cuba Gooding Jr. was accused of groping 30 women, with many of them filing suit against the actor. Now, one of the women who filed against Cuba for allegedly groping her—Natasha Ashworth, has won her case against Gooding.
The incident in question reportedly occurred while at the nightclub she was working at. Gooding reportedly grabbed her backside while they were at Tao Downtown in 2019. From there, Ashworth sued Gooding and ended up winning her suit in a default judgment after he reportedly refused to respond to the suit for over a year.
Because of this judgment, a trial will be happening to determine any monetary compensation to be awarded to Ashworth. Gooding’s lawyer Mark Heller reportedly said Ashworth’s claim is “baseless, and the judgment is worthless.” Stay tuned for more updates.
