in 1965 was dropped following allegations she destroyed evidence in the case.

"This case is over. It is outrageous that it was ever brought in the first place," Dylan's attorney Orin Snyder said in a statement, calling the case a"lawyer-driven sham." The lawsuit, filed last year, alleged that Dylan befriended the girl in May 1965 and"established an emotional connection" with her to"lower her inhibitions with the object of sexually abusing her, which he did."

Before the judge's ruling, Snyder had sent Failla a letter suggesting that J.C. had"destroyed evidence directly relevant to the central factual allegations in this litigation.""These are not just any emails. They are emails from 2021 to and from Plaintiff herself discussing — and casting doubt on — the key factual allegations she has made in this lawsuit," the letter reads.
