Papers can be served on Andrew’s US lawyer – judge

A judge has ruled that Prince Andrew’s US lawyer can be served with legal papers in a sexual assault case filed by Virginia Giuffre in New York.

It follows a dispute over whether the prince has been formally notified of the civil claim against him.

New York judge Lewis Kaplan ruled Ms Giuffre’s lawyers could take the US route to serve papers on the prince.

Ms Giuffre, 38, claims she was sexually assaulted by the prince at three locations including New York City.
