US Judge Dismisses Sexual Abuse Lawsuit Against OpenAI CEO Sam AltmanPreviousNext

A US federal judge dismissed a sexual abuse lawsuit filed by Annie Altman against her brother, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, after she failed to attend a court-ordered independent medical examination. The lawsuit, filed in January 2025, alleged abuse from 1997 to 2006 starting when Annie was three years old. Sam Altman has denied the allegations, and the family noted Annie's mental health challenges and financial support. The dismissal ended the case and a related defamation claim by Sam Altman.
