Bill Cosby accused of allegedly failing to pay $59M sexual assault damages: court docs

Donna Motsinger's attorney Jesse Creed has asked a federal judge to sanction Bill Cosby, alleging the 89-year-old comedian has paid none of the $59.25 million judgment won against him in Los Angeles Superior Court and has dodged three scheduled depositions in April, June, and September 2026, according to AOL.com. Creed said Cosby is mentally sharp and physically robust, citing a November 2025 deposition in which Cosby answered every question coherently despite being blind. "I deposed him last November, and his health was fine," Creed said. "He answered every question, and his mind was sharp. He's blind but that did not impact his ability at all to answer questions coherently." Creed added that Cosby "is trying to avoid accountability for his actions. He doesn't want to tell the truth about all the rape he committed. He's had a lifetime of sexual assaults against women." Cosby's attorney Jennifer Bonjean filed papers in Nevada federal court portraying him as a helpless senior citizen with significant mobility limitations, age-related health issues, and disabilities that make appearing in person for a deposition far from his home challenging. Creed also accused Cosby of refusing to turn over financial records, selling his African art collection, and allegedly squirreling cash into his daughter's trust fund and elsewhere. "We're going to go to the ends of the earth to get the money," Creed said. "We are going to look under every rock, nook and cranny. And anyone who takes money from him at this point in time or in the past is subject to liability themselves for fraudulent transfer." Attorney Jordan Rutsky asked a federal judge to force Cosby to sit for a deposition in Nevada or impose a default judgment for repeated and willful discovery misconduct. Cosby was convicted in 2018 of sexually assaulting Andrea Constand at his Pennsylvania home in 2004 and served nearly three years in prison before Pennsylvania's Supreme Court overturned the conviction on due process grounds. About 60 women have accused him of sexual misconduct over the years. Motsinger said, "Cosby is doing what he must do, and my lawyers are doing what they must do."
