The lawsuit, filed on behalf of Alexandra Canosa in the New York Supreme Court on Wednesday accuses the 65-year-old father of five of violations that include sexual harassment, assault, battery and emotional distress.
Canosa “incurred substantial physical injury, pain, suffering, humiliation, mental anguish, and emotional distress,” said a copy of the lawsuit, seeking damages and costs “estimated to be in excess of $10 million.”
“The causes of action are based on repeated sexual harassment, sexual intimidation, emotional abuse, assault and battery of plaintiff by defendant Harvey Weinstein over a period of years through 2017,” said the suit.
The alleged behavior happened while Canosa was employed by Weinstein and The Weinstein Company.
