Actor Cuba Gooding Jr. will not have to face a jury in the federal civil rape case brought against him by an anonymous plaintiff.

The Academy Award winner settled the case, filed in August of 2020 by a plaintiff identified in court filings only as “Jane Doe,” shortly before jury selection was supposed to begin in a federal courthouse in downtown New York on Tuesday.

“There will be no trial in the above matter,” a tersely worded email from a spokesperson for the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York said. No additional details were provided.
