Bob Dylan's sexual harassment lawsuit has kept the music icon's estate busy in the past year.
After condemning the controversial allegations last year, a stunning development has kept Dylan's lawyer's at the edge of their seats, particularly making sense of the timing of the opponent's actions.
The GRAMMY Hall of Famer was hit with a whopping lawsuit last August alleging that Dylan groomed and sexually abused her as a child.
Bob Dylan's Lawyers Question Accuser's Legal Team
Lawyers of music icon Bob Dylan are bewildered as two of the accuser's legal counsel have been fired days before important case deadlines.
In a recent Rolling Stone report, the unidentified accuser's lawyer announced via a letter last Tuesday that they were dismissed from the case, which led Dylan's camp to request an emergency hearing.
According to Orin Snyder, one of Bob Dylan's legal counsel, the dismissal of the lawyers are "concerning" because it seems like they were trying to "evade court-ordered document production obligations" and the threat of being sanctioned.
Apparently, the accuser's camp was ordered to produce "all non-privileged documents" that were in response to the defendant's request no later than today, Jul. 22, 2022.
Based on the hearings, it seemed like the documents requested by Dylan's camp are of great importance to the case, considering that the estate has been pointing out that the case was a "chronological impossibility" from the onset.

Aside from the document deadlines, "key witnessess" to the allegations will be undergoing live depositions in the coming weeks, a thing that is crucial for the case.
Discharged lawyers refused to comment on the issue, noting that they would only speak inside the four walls of the courtrooms.
Bob Dylan Sexual Harassment Lawsuit Impossible To Happen?
Earlier this year, Bob Dylan's legal team denounced the high-profile lawsuit that has plagued their estate.
In the lawsuit, the unidentified woman, who was 12 years old at the time of the crime, claims that Bob Dylan attempted to abuse her sexually and gave drugs, alcohol, and threats of physical violence, leaving her "emotionally scarred and psychologically damaged."
The lawsuit was amended in January 2022, with the crime allegedly taking place several months in 1965 at the Chelsea Hotel in New York, compared to the initial six-week timeframe between April and May 1965.
The amendment was prompted after Dylan's historians argued that it was "chronologically impossible" for the act to happen as the singer was not in Manhattan at the time, the victim alleges, as he was touring outside the Big Apple.
