A US judge dismissed the civil sexual abuse lawsuit against OpenAI CEO Sam Altman filed by his sister, according to a Reuters flash relayed at 13:19 UTC today. The headline was pushed by DeItaone, BWEnews and other Telegram relays, all citing RTRS with no judge name or order attached yet.

A US judge dismissed the civil sexual abuse lawsuit against OpenAI CEO Sam Altman filed by his sister, according to a Reuters flash relayed at 13:19 UTC today. The headline was pushed by DeItaone, BWEnews and other Telegram relays, all citing RTRS with no judge name or order attached yet.

The case was Annie Altman v. Sam Altman, filed Jan. 2025, alleging repeated abuse in Missouri from 1997-2006 starting when she was 3. Altman has called the claims utterly untrue.

An earlier dismissal had already thrown out her standalone assault claims as time-barred but let her refile under Missouri's Childhood Sexual Abuse statute, and she filed an amended complaint in April 2026.

Today's reports do not say if this dismissal ends that revived claim, if it is with prejudice, or if his defamation countersuit survives. No Reuters story text, court order, or Altman statement beyond the flash was available at this hour.

So treat this as confirmed that a dismissal headline crossed, but the scope and reasoning are not yet public in the sources found.
