Cuba Gooding Jr. will face trial in June over an alleged rape that took place in 2013. A Manhattan Federal Court Judge Paul Crotty has set the trial date for the first week of June. The case is a civil lawsuit, with Gooding's accuser, referred to in court papers as Jane Doe, seeking $6 million in damages. According to Doe, Gooding invited her and a friend back to his room at the Mercer Hotel in Greenwich Village on Aug. 24, 2013, after they met in the VIP lounge of a restaurant. Doe claims Gooding then raped her twice inside the hotel room. Gooding's lawyers have denied the accusations and argued that Doe's lawsuit is baseless. They have also argued that the statute of limitations for the alleged rape has expired. The trial is expected to last for several days, with both sides presenting evidence and witnesses. The outcome of the trial could have a major impact on Gooding's career and reputation.
