According to AP News, Napolitano has been a legal pundit for Fox News for more than two decades, and he became a vocal critic of Donald Trump on a network known for supporting him. He was a judge in the New Jersey court system before that.

According to the case, which was filed in state Supreme Court in Manhattan, “Even though the two had never met previously, Judge Napolitano stood awkwardly close to the plaintiff, started stroking his arm, and asked who the plaintiff worked for.”

Napolitano was accused of sexually harassing “several young male employees” at Fox, according to the lawsuit.
