Andrew Cuomo threatens suit against sex-harass accuser Charlotte Bennett — before New York can pass law blocking cases targeting alleged victims

Ex-Gov. Andrew Cuomo has filed new court papers threatening a defamation suit against sex-harass accuser Charlotte Bennett — before Albany could pass a law to hinder such cases targeting alleged victims.

The document, filed in Manhattan Supreme Court on Friday, is reupping his notice of claim to sue Bennett and her lawyer, Debra Katz, for issuing damning statements against the former governor-turned-mayoral candidate even after Bennett voluntarily dismissed her lawsuit against him in federal court in December.

“Bennett reposted her agents’ tweet, which has garnered more than 90,000 views, was false and defamatory, and Bennett made it knowing full well that it was false and intending to cause harm to Governor Cuomo,” Cuomo’s suit said.
