Cristiano Ronaldo’s legal fight against a woman who accuses the Juventus star of raping her in his suite at a Las Vegas resort more than 10 years ago is heading toward a trial before a federal judge in Nevada.
No date was immediately set, but US district judge Jennifer Dorsey said she will hear arguments and decide herself whether Kathryn Mayorga was mentally fit to enter a 2010 hush-money agreement with Ronaldo’s representatives that paid Mayorga $375,000.
Ronaldo’s attorney, Peter Christiansen, declined to comment on Tuesday. Mayorga’s lawyers, led by Leslie Mark Stovall, have yet to respond to the judge’s ruling, which was issued on 30 September.
