DJ David Mueller allegedly groped Taylor Swift during a meet-and-greet in 2013, and the case went to court. Mueller had said that it was an accidental touching, but Swift testified that it was a deliberate and long grab. After he was fired, Mueller sued Swift for defamation. Swift countersued for $1 to set a precedent for other women in similar situations. Mueller's lawyer, however, argued that Mueller had lost his job due to his actions. The court delivered its ruling on August 2017 by siding with Swift; a strong message that is set to send in cases involving sexual harassment.
