Court Strikes Accusation Regarding Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz

[From article]
The judge’s Monday decision annuls Dershowitz’s filing to intervene; the district court judge, Kenneth A. Marra, wrote “as the Court has taken it upon itself to strike the impertinent factual details [from the case]...the Court concludes that Mr. Dershowitz’s intervention in this case is unnecessary.”
The judge’s decision does not directly address the veracity of Jane Doe No. 3’s claims, but rather their relevance to the ongoing case. Still, Dershowitz said he was optimistic about the latest developments.
“As far as I’m concerned, it was a total vindication,” he said.

The legal struggle has not come to a close, though. Both Dershowitz and the two lawyers have sued one another for defamation, and Dershowitz said that he plans to continue his efforts to combat the accusations against him.
