KEVIN SPACEY HEADED TO TRIAL IN U.K. AGAIN OVER CIVIL SEXUAL ASSAULT CLAIM

Kevin Spacey's legal troubles are still rumbling on.

The actor is set to face a civil trial in the U.K. after being sued by a man who alleges Spacey sexually assaulted him.

The man - who has been granted anonymity by the court - claims he "suffered psychiatric damage and other financial loss" as a result of the alleged sexual assault, which he says took place in August 2008.

The trial is set to take place in early 2025.

The actor's legal team was back in court on Tuesday morning to set aside a default judgment in favor of the claimant after Spacey's solicitors failed to file his defence in time.

Last summer Spacey was cleared of criminal wrongdoing after a jury found him not guilty of nine charges, including sexual assault and indecent assault.

More to come…
