New York, New York - New York Mayor Eric Adams on Thursday denied allegations that he sexually assaulted a female coworker 30 years ago, as the state sees a flurry of lawsuits filed ahead of a statute of limitations deadline.

The complaint against Adams, filed Wednesday, alleges "sexual assault, battery and employment discrimination on the basis of Plaintiff’s gender and sex, retaliation, hostile work environment, and intentional infliction of emotional distress," according to court documents.

The Democratic mayor "vigorously" denies the claim, his office said, arguing he does not know the plaintiff and would never cause anyone physical harm.

Adams followed up by telling reporters that "I will never do anything to harm anyone. That has never happened."

The civil suit, first reported by The Messenger news site, alleges the plaintiff "was sexually assaulted by Defendant Eric Adams in New York, New York in 1993 while they both worked for the City of New York."

The woman is seeking a trial and at least $5 million in relief, according to a summons dated Wednesday.

The suit was submitted under the New York Adult Survivors Act, a law passed last year that opened a one-year window for sexual assault claims to be filed that otherwise happened too far in the past to litigate.

That window expires Friday.

Sexual assault lawsuits were also filed Wednesday against actor Jamie Foxx and Guns N' Roses frontman Axl Rose.

Those suits follow a rape complaint against rapper Diddy, filed last week by R&B singer Cassie, whose real name is Casandra Ventura. A day after that filing, the parties said they had agreed to resolve the case, but did not disclose the settlement terms.

However, by Thursday, more suits were filed against him.

Former President Donald Trump was also sued under the law by former magazine columnist E. Jean Carroll, whom a jury awarded $2 million in May.

Meanwhile, Adams also faces a corruption investigation into campaign financing. Federal investigators are probing whether his 2021 campaign conspired with Turkey's government and other actors.
