Stier’s allegation, which was reportedly supplied to the FBI in 2018 during Kavanaugh’s confirmation process but was never investigated, first appeared publicly in the New York Times on Saturday.
Stier has never spoken publicly about his accusation, which was corroborated to the Times by U.S. officials familiar with the report.

A request for comment from the Supreme Court was not immediately returned Saturday, and Kavanaugh has denied past claims of sexual misconduct he faced during his 2018 confirmation process. He also declined to answer questions about the new allegations to the Times.
Kavanaugh was confirmed to the court last year after a contentious battle over allegations of sexual assault and misconduct, which he denied in emotional testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee.
