Former model Chloe Goins, 26, filed a federal civil suit at United States District Court in California's Central District against the embattled comedian last year (15), claiming she was just a teenager when Cosby allegedly forced himself upon her at a party held at Hefner's Playboy mansion in 2008.
In the former dispute, she claimed she felt dizzy and sick after Cosby gave her a drink and escorted her to a room.
The Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office declined to file criminal charges in the case at the end of last year , and Goins voluntarily dismissed her federal lawsuit without prejudice in February.
And now Goins and her lawyers are taking advantage of the opportunity, as they have re-filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court and while she still accuses Cosby of the same actions, she added the 90-year-old Playboy boss as a defendant, claiming he assisted his longtime friend in the alleged assault by telling her to lie down after the actor gave her the spiked drink.
