Former Dodgers pitcher Trevor Bauer is now seeking more than $300,000 in a default judgment against the San Diego woman who accused him of sexual assault, who he says breached the terms of an agreement they reached in 2023 to settle their dueling lawsuits.
Bauer’s Los Angeles Superior Court complaint contends that Lindsey Hill went afoul of their settlement agreement by falsely stating 22 times, mostly on the internet, that she received money from Bauer as part of the accord.
In his suit brought last Oct. 10, Bauer contends that Hill is liable for $10,000 for each breach of the settlement agreement. The former Cy Young Award winner also is asking for attorneys’ fees, costs and pre-judgment interest.
In February, Bauer’s attorneys filed court papers seeking $273,000. According to revised court papers filed Friday with Judge Daniel Crowley, that amount has now climbed to roughly $307,480, composed of $220,000 in damages, $68,940 in attorneys’ fees, about $4,260 in costs and about $14,285 in interest.
Bauer is seeking a default judgment because Hill has not participated in the latest case.
Bauer, 34, signed a three-year agreement with the Dodgers in 2021 and was released by the team in January 2023. He now plays for the Yokohama DeNA BayStars in Japan.
