Prince Andrew Will Testify Under Oath In A Civil Sex Assault Case Next Month

Prince Andrew will testify under oath in a civil sex assault case next month.

In the civil sex assault action against him, Prince Andrew is scheduled to testify under oath in London next month.

On March 10, the Duke of York will appear in court for a deposition in a neutral site in the capital.

Despite "multiple demands," Virginia Giuffre, the royal's accuser, has yet to commit to a date or location for her deposition, according to a source close to the royal.

The Telegraph was the first to reveal Andrew's deposition date, which falls on the eve of the Queen's Platinum Jubilee.

The king will become the first British monarch to surpass the milestone of 70 years on the throne on Sunday.

According to the Telegraph, Andrew's deposition will be conducted by Ms Giuffre's solicitors, David Boies and Sigrid McCawley, and will span two days.

Mr. Boies earlier stated that his client and legal team were looking forward to "confronting" Andrew at his deposition and trial concerning his "denials and attempts to blame Ms Giuffre for her own abuse."

According to his law firm's website, the renowned lawyer was named one of Time Magazine's 100 most influential people in the world in 2010, and he has been named Global International Litigator of the Year by Who's Who Legal seven times.

Ms Giuffre is suing the Duke of Edinburgh for damages in her home country of the United States, alleging that she was trafficked to have sex with the royal when she was 17, a minor under US law, at Ghislaine Maxwell's London home in the early 2000s by disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein, Andrew's friend and a convicted sex offender.

During a visit to Epstein's private island, Little St James, and on another occasion at the financier's Manhattan residence, the duke is also accused of sexually abusing Ms Giuffre.

He categorically denies all charges.
