Prince Andrew to challenge jurisdiction over accuser's sexual assault lawsuit

Giuffre's lawsuit puts Andrew in a tough position because he could be held in default and owe damages if he ignores it, or face years of legal battles by defending himself in court.

The complaint also said Andrew abused Giuffre at Epstein's mansion on Manhattan's Upper East Side, and on a private island Epstein owned in the US Virgin Islands. But in a 6 September letter, Gary Bloxsome, a lawyer for Blackfords, which said it represents Andrew in UK matters, said the attempted service may violate the Hague Convention.
