A judge dismisses the majority of claims in a lawsuit accusing Aerosmith singer Steven Tyler of grooming and sexually assaulting a teenager in the 1970s, according to reporting. Tyler, 78, previously denies the allegations and has contested the accusations in court. The accuser, who has publicly identified herself as Julia Misley, alleges abuse began when she was 16. Sources also state that while many parts of the case are thrown out, the court’s ruling does not necessarily resolve every aspect of the matter, depending on what claims remain. The decision follows earlier legal proceedings in which Tyler denied wrongdoing and argued against the allegations. The judge’s ruling is presented as a legal setback for the plaintiff’s effort to pursue most of the claims, while Tyler’s attorneys frame the outcome as a victory consistent with the denials. The reports describe the case in terms of the specific allegations tied to events in the 1970s and the legal grounds on which the judge dismisses the majority of them.
