Anti-Flag company dismissed from accuser’s suit

ALBANY, N.Y. — The woman who accused Anti-Flag’s lead singer, Justin Sane, of raping her in a New York motel in 2010 lost her negligence and emotional distress claims against the band’s closely related business, which Sane and other members were executives of. She could not establish that her assault was perpetrated with the use of company property or resources, or that the firm owned or operated the motel where she was violated. The frontman has not replied to the suit, however, and the court reminds his accuser to file a motion for default judgment within 30 days.
