Cosby's lawyers seek dismissal of model's defamation lawsuit

LOS ANGELES — A judge is scheduled to consider today whether to dismiss model Janice Dickinson’s defamation lawsuit against Bill Cosby.

The comedian’s attorneys want Dickinson’s case to be dismissed because they say Dickinson has given differing accounts of her interactions with Cosby over the years.

Dickinson sued Cosby in May over his denial of her claims that he drugged and raped her in Lake Tahoe in 1982. She said she tried to include the story in a 2002 memoir, but her publisher refused.

Cosby’s former attorney has denied her claims.
