Verdict in Robert De Niro’s gender discrimination civil suit.
The 80-year-old actor recently came out against his former Canal Productions assistant Graham Chase Robinson. Robert sued Graham in August 2019, claiming he stole millions of frequent flyer miles and watched Netflix while at work.
In July 2021, Graham sued Robert for $12 million, alleging verbal harassment and gender discrimination. A New York jury found Robert not responsible on Thursday (November 9), Deadline reports.
However, the jury found Canal Productions guilty of both gender discrimination and retaliation. Robert’s company was ordered to pay Graham more than $1.2 million in damages.
The decision came after eight days of testimony from Robert, Graham, their attorney and several witnesses. You may not know, but Robert De Niro is one of the 15 stars who had children after the age of 50.
