Jimmy Fallon, Lorne Michaels and Tracy Morgan are being named in a sexual misconduct lawsuit filed against Horatio Sanz, with the plaintiff claiming that they enabled the Saturday Night Live star’s behavior.
The woman, identified only as “Jane Doe,” filed a complaint in August 2021 claiming that Sanz, 53, groomed her when she was a teenage superfan of the variety show and provided her with alcohol before groping her against her will when she was 17. In her newest filing, she claimed that the trio enabled the comedian’s behavior when she attended SNL afterparties between 2000 and 2002.

The complaint also claims that Morgan, 53, rented out a space for an after-after party in May 2002, where Sanz allegedly groped her. Sanz’ lawyer, Andrew Brettler, has denied the allegation, and claims that the woman sought a multimillion-dollar payout before she filed her lawsuit.
