联邦法官驳回奥特曼妹妹的性侵诉讼：原告拒绝独立医学检查 法官未就指控本身作裁决
据路透社报道，美国联邦地区法官 Zachary Bluestone 10月20日驳回了 OpenAI 首席执行官 Sam Altman（奥特曼）的妹妹 Ann Altman 对其提起的性侵诉讼，驳回附带偏见（with prejudice）。法官没有就指控本身是否属实作裁决，驳回理由是 Ann Altman 拒绝出席法院要求的独立医学检查，尽管她此前已被明确警告不出席将导致案件被驳回。
Ann Altman 于2025年1月提起诉讼，指控 Sam Altman 在1997年至2006年间于密苏里州的家中对她实施性侵，称侵害开始时她3岁、兄长12岁，最后一次指控的侵害发生在兄长成年之后。今年3月，Bluestone 法官裁定其最初的性侵与殴打诉求已超过追诉时效，但允许她依据密苏里州一项儿童性侵法律重新起诉；此次被驳回的是重新起诉后的修正诉状。
现年41岁的 Sam Altman 否认全部指控。他与母亲及两个弟弟在最初起诉后发表联合声明，称这些指控「完全不实」，并称 Ann Altman 有心理健康方面的困扰、拒绝常规治疗、并对真心试图帮助她的家人发泄不满。Bluestone 法官同日批准了 Sam Altman 的请求，允许他撤回此前对妹妹提出的诽谤反诉。
Ann Altman 的前律师 Santos Perez 已于10月退出此案。他表示，自己已不再获授权就此案置评，但他「仍然相信 Annie（Ann Altman）」。
Federal Judge Dismisses Lawsuit by Sam Altman's Sister After She Refused a Medical Exam, Without Ruling on the Allegations
A U.S. federal judge on October 20 dismissed the sexual abuse lawsuit brought by Ann Altman against her brother, OpenAI Chief Executive Sam Altman, with prejudice, Reuters reported. U.S. District Judge Zachary Bluestone did not rule on the merits of the allegations. He dismissed the case because Ann Altman refused to appear for an independent medical examination, despite having been warned that skipping it would lead to dismissal.
Ann Altman filed the lawsuit in January 2025, accusing Sam Altman of sexually abusing her at the family's Missouri home between 1997 and 2006, beginning when she was three and he was 12, and alleging that the last instance of abuse took place when her brother was an adult. In March, Judge Bluestone ruled that her original sexual assault and battery claims had expired years earlier, but allowed her to refile under a Missouri childhood sexual abuse law; the amended suit filed under that ruling is the one dismissed on Tuesday.
Sam Altman, 41, has denied the claims. In a joint statement issued after the initial lawsuit was filed, Sam Altman, his mother and his two younger brothers called the allegations entirely untrue, and said Ann Altman has mental health challenges, refuses conventional treatment, and lashes out at family members who are genuinely trying to help. Judge Bluestone on Tuesday also approved Sam Altman's request to withdraw a defamation counterclaim he had brought against his sister.
Ann Altman's former lawyer, Santos Perez, who withdrew from the case in October, said he is no longer authorized to comment on the case but that he continues to believe in Annie, referring to Ann Altman.
