New York agrees to settle lawsuit with ex-aide who accused Andrew Cuomo of sexual harassment

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK, JUL 18 – New York State agreed to pay $450,000 to settle a sexual harassment lawsuit from former Cuomo aide Brittany Commisso, marking the second such settlement this year, officials said.

  • In a settlement, New York state agreed Friday to pay $450,000 to Brittany Commisso.
  • According to a report from state Attorney General Letitia James, her office found Cuomo sexually harassed 11 women, including Commisso's allegations of misconduct in December 2020.
  • As part of the deal, Commisso will personally receive $225,000, her legal team another $225,000, and she agreed not to seek employment in the governor's office through 2030.
  • Cuomo’s attorneys Rita Glavin and Theresa Trzaskoma said `The settlement is not a vindication, it is capitulation to avoid the truth` to dismiss claims of guilt.
  • After losing the Democratic primary last month to Zohran Mamdani by over 12 points, Cuomo relaunched his independent mayoral campaign this week, facing an uphill battle in a heavily Democratic city.
