Judge: Women Can Sue Actor Accused of Giving them Herpes

A judge refused today to dismiss a lawsuit filed by two women who allege they were infected with herpes by an actor.

Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Michael Linfield stated in a seven-page ruling that the women, identified only as Jane Doe 1 and Jane Doe 2, had provided sufficient details for the case to proceed against Jay Tavare.

The judge also ruled the plaintiffs do not have to reveal their identities in their court papers.
