Steven Tyler Accuser Can Proceed With California Sex Abuse Claims Only, Judge Says
- California judge allows Misley's California sex abuse claims to proceed toward trial.
- Judge excludes non‑California claims tied to Oregon, Washington, and Massachusetts.
- Judge signals a tailored ruling to narrow the lawsuit without dismissing California claims entirely.
- Misley’s claims include alleged 1973 abuse in Portland and other incidents cited in California.
- Tyler’s team argued Massachusetts law governed the relationship, but California has an interest restricting abuse in state borders.
- California revived claims under its Child Victims Act, enabling the California case to move forward.
- Tyler’s prior guardian/age-relationship defenses were argued and then largely abandoned by his side.
- Misley described family trauma and alleged grooming in public statements and filings.
- The judge’s decision sets up a potential California trial while limiting cross-state claims.
