A Cook County judge has entered a default judgment for a woman who sued R. Kelly in February, accusing the singer of sexually abusing her when she was a minor 20 years ago.
Reports on Wednesday that the court will enter an amount Kelly should pay next month.
Separately, Kelly is charged criminally with sexually abusing three girls and a woman. He denies the allegations. Lawsuit filings aren’t clear about links to the criminal case.
It’s unclear if Kelly has a lawyer for the civil matter. His criminal attorney, Steve Greenberg, told The Associated Press on Wednesday he isn’t involved in the civil case. He added: “I know nothing about it except for what I read in the papers.
