Over a year has passed since a Manhattan jury handed down a $10 million civil rape judgment against renowned filmmaker Paul Haggis. Despite the elapsed time, plaintiff’s firm Emery Celli Brinckerhoff Abady Ward & Maazel, alongside Proman Law, remain in the process of collecting the significant judgement.

Haggis continues to deny the allegations levied against him.
