NEW YORK — (UPDATED) Oscar-winning US actor Jamie Foxx has been accused of sexually assaulting a woman in 2015, according to a New York court filing Wednesday.

In the document the plaintiff, identified only as Jane Doe, alleges Foxx "intentionally and without consent used force to offensively touch" her, by groping her breasts and genitals at a rooftop bar in Manhattan.

His accuser says the Oscar-winning actor, now age 55, grabbed her by the "arm and pulled her to the back area of the rooftop" after meeting her at the bar.

Once there, he allegedly proceeded to grope the plaintiff until a friend came looking for her.

She also calls for Foxx, whose real name is Eric Marlon Bishop, to face a jury trial that could award punitive damages.

The suit says the plaintiff "will permanently be affected by the injuries and emotional distress she incurred as a result of the sexual assault, abuse, assault and battery."

Foxx, who in addition to acting is a comedian and Grammy-winning singer, won an Academy Award in 2005 for the Ray Charles musical biopic "Ray." He was nominated for an Oscar for "Collateral" that same year.

Wednesday's suit follows a rape complaint against rapper Sean Combs under the Adult Survivors Act, filed last week by R&B singer Cassie, whose real name is Casandra Ventura.

A day after the lawsuit was filed, the parties said they had agreed to resolve the case, but did not disclose the settlement terms.
