Crispin Glover, known for his role in 'Back to the Future,' finds himself embroiled in legal trouble as he faces a lawsuit filed by a former girlfriend. The plaintiff, who goes by Jane Doe, accuses the actor of battery, fraud, and emotional distress, among other charges.

According to the lawsuit, Doe claims she met Glover on social media in 2015 and alleges he made 'strange advances,' leading her to move to Los Angeles with promises of a new start. She further claims Glover sought to control her life upon her arrival, culminating in a March incident where she was allegedly evicted without notice and assaulted.

Glover has categorically denied the accusations, labeling them as 'baseless allegations.' His representatives argue that Glover was actually the victim of an assault by Doe at his residence, which led to her arrest. As both sides prepare for a jury trial, the legal battle continues to escalate.
