性虐待指控后，瑞奇·马丁（Ricky Martin）对侄子发起法律诉讼

The lawsuit obtained by the outlet, which was signed by Martin’s lawyer Dora L. Monserrate Peñagarícano reads: “Defendant Sánchez has threatened and extorted [Martin] that, unless he is economically compensated, he will continue with his campaign to assassinate his reputation and integrity, through false and malicious imputations.”

Martin is claiming that his nephew cost him $10 million (AUD $14,652,550 or £8,635,250) worth of damages and is seeking a further $20 million (AUD$29,311,980 or £17,270,500) as Sanchez tainted a ‘previously impeccable reputation earned through his long artistic and altruistic career’.

该诉讼还指出，桑切斯声称他为自己的安全而担心，尽管马丁住在加利福尼亚数千英里之外，但歌手在他的住所周围“徘徊”。

当马丁否认这些指控时，他将与他的亲戚在法庭上进行战斗，这可能面临50年的监禁。

但是在撤销索赔之后，马丁和他的律师发表了一份声明：“正如我们预期的那样，法院并没有延长临时保护令。”

马丁和他的团队坚持认为，这些主张是由“陷入困境的人”提出的，指控背后没有真相。

他们说：“该请求来自原告要求驳回此案的要求。这绝不只是一个陷入困境的人，做出虚假指控，绝对没有证实他们。

“我们很高兴我们的客户看到了正义，现在可以继续他的生活和职业。”
