A lawsuit accusing actor Warren Beatty of coercive sex with a teenager five decades ago was dismissed Friday. The suit, lodged in Los Angeles last year, was one among&nbsp;several&nbsp; historic abuse claims filed under a California law allowing complaints that would otherwise have passed the statute of limitations.

Kristina Charlotte Hirsch alleged in the suit that she met the Bonnie and Clyde&nbsp;actor on a movie set in 1973 when she was 14 or 15 years old.&nbsp;

She claimed he later invited her to the hotel in which he was living and took her for car rides.&nbsp;Beatty -- who would have been aged around 35 at the time -- "used his position and status as an adult and a Hollywood movie star to coerce sexual contact with Plaintiff on multiple occasions, including oral sex, simulated sex and finally coerced sexual intercourse with the minor child," the suit said.

Beverly Hills Superior Court Judge Edward Moreton Jr dismissed the case "with prejudice" at a hearing Friday meaning it cannot be refiled.

Moreton noted that Hirsch had not filed case management papers and was representing herself after her former attorney withdrew this year.

Beatty, now 86, has long had a reputation as a lothario whose romantic entanglements have at times overshadowed his acting career.

He has in the past been linked to names including Jane Fonda, Brigitte Bardot, Diane Keaton and Britt Ekland.

Lawsuit accusing actor Warren Beatty of sexual abuse of teenage girl dismissed

In a rather distasteful incident that has come to fore, actor Warren Beatty finds himself in a bit of a situation as a woman filed a lawsuit alleging he coerced her into having sex with him in 1973 when she was merely 14 or 15 years old.&nbsp;

A woman named Kristina Charlotte Hirsch filed the lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court. Although the lawsuit does not name Warren Beatty, it identifies the man as having been nominated for an Academy Award for his role as Clyde in ‘Bonnie and Clyde’. It was indeed Warren Beatty who played that famous character on screen.&nbsp;

Apparently, Warren Beatty had met with the woman on a movie set where he paid “undue attention” to her, commented on her looks and gave her his phone number. She alleges that the actor called her several times in 1973. He invited her to the hotel where he was living and would also take her on car drives.&nbsp;

The actor also allegedly told her several times about losing her virginity.&nbsp;

This was when the woman was just 14 or 15 years old while Warren Beatty would have been 35.&nbsp;

According to the suit, the actor “used his position and status as an adult and a Hollywood movie star to coerce sexual contact with Plaintiff on multiple occasions, including oral sex, simulated sex and finally coerced sexual intercourse with the minor child.”

When it all started, the woman was “thrilled” by all the attention and believed it to be a romantic relationship. She is now seeking compensation for psychological, mental and emotional distress. The suit alleges that she has had difficulty interacting with people in positions of authority as a result of the sexual abuse, and has suffered “issues with trust and control.”

Chloe Grace and Jack O'Connell to play Bonnie and Clyde in 'Love Is a Gun'

An accountant for the Academy Awards botched the meticulous procedure for announcing the Oscar for best picture when he handed victory to &quot;La La Land&quot; before declaring &quot;Moonlight&quot; the real winner, PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) said on Monday.

Accountant Brian Cullinan, who media reports said had been tweeting backstage shortly before, gave presenters Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway the wrong envelope for the movie industry&#39;s top award on Sunday, the accounting firm said in a statement.

In a gaffe that stunned the Dolby Theatre crowd in Hollywood and a television audience worldwide, &quot;Cullinan mistakenly handed the back-up envelope for Actress in a Leading Role instead of the envelope for Best Picture&quot; to Beatty and Dunaway,&nbsp;PwC&nbsp;said.

&quot;Once the error occurred, protocols for correcting it were not followed through quickly enough by Mr&nbsp;Cullinan or his partner.&quot;

The Wall Street Journal and celebrity website TMZ.com reported that Cullinan had posted a backstage photo of actress Emma Stone on social network Twitter minutes before the mix-up.

The photo, from Cullinan&#39;s Twitter account, was later deleted but was still viewable on Monday on a cached archive of the page. Cullinan could not immediately be reached for comment.

The mistake was not rectified until the &quot;La La Land&quot; cast and producers were on stage giving their acceptance speeches. It was left to the musical&#39;s producer, Jordan Horowitz, to put things right.

&quot;Guys, guys, I&#39;m sorry. No. There&#39;s a mistake,&quot; Horowitz said. &quot;&#39;Moonlight,&#39; you guys won best picture. This is not a joke.&quot;

It took three hours for PricewaterhouseCoopers, which has been overseeing Academy Awards balloting for 83 years, initially to confirm that Beatty and Dunaway received the wrong category envelope.

PwC&nbsp;said it took full responsibility and apologised to the casts and crews of &quot;La La Land&quot; and &quot;Moonlight.&quot;

&quot;We sincerely apologise to Warren Beatty, Faye Dunaway, (host) Jimmy Kimmel, (broadcaster) ABC, and the Academy, none of whom was at fault for last night&#39;s errors,&quot; it said in its statement.

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, which organises the Oscars, also apologised for the mishap and said it was committed to upholding the integrity of the Oscars.

Watch: <a href="http://www.wionews.com/videos/the-oscar-goes-to-la-la-uhh-moonlight-2395">The moment Oscars got it wrong on live TV</a>

&quot;We have spent last night and today investigating the circumstances, and will determine what actions are appropriate going forward,&quot; it said in a statement.

An embarrassed Beatty carried the envelope to the glitzy Governor&#39;s Ball after the show, with the writing clearly saying &quot;actress in a leading role.&quot; &quot;La La Land&quot; star Stone had been awarded that Oscar moments before.

&quot;Except for the end, it was fun,&quot; Kimmel said on Monday, referring to the Oscar show he hosted.

&quot;You know it&rsquo;s a strange night when the word &lsquo;envelope&rsquo; is trending on Twitter,&quot; he said on his ABC show &quot;Jimmy Kimmel Live.&quot;

&#39;Not advanced math&#39;

Brand management experts said it could take years for PricewaterhouseCoopers to recover.

&quot;This is not advanced math.&nbsp;PwC&nbsp;had to get the right name in the right envelope and get it to the right person,&quot; said Tim Calkins, a marketing professor at Northwestern University, calling the blunder a &quot;bit of a branding tragedy.&quot;

Under a&nbsp;PwC&nbsp;procedure, just two accountants know the names of the 24 winners after their names are placed in two sets of sealed envelopes. The two accountants also memorize the winning names.

Tradition has it that the envelopes are taken separately in two briefcases to the Academy Awards venue. The two accountants - in this case Cullinan and Martha Ruiz - are driven there separately, in case of an accident or traffic delays.

The pair then stand off stage at opposite sides and hand envelopes to the respective presenters as each category is announced.

Last week, Cullinan told the Huffington Post the procedure for dealing with the hand-off of an incorrect envelope, other than signaling to a stage manager, was unclear.

&quot;It&#39;s so unlikely,&quot; Cullinan added.

The error was corrected quickly, although precious minutes passed, said Anthony Sabino, a law professor at St John&#39;s University in New York.

&quot;It&#39;s not as if we woke up this morning, or if it had been uncovered after the telecast was over. That would have really have been a black eye,&quot; he added.

Compared to accounting fraud at other companies in the past, &quot;this incident diminished vastly to a vanishing point,&quot; Sabino said.

The &quot;Moonlight&quot; filmmakers were gracious about the error.

Director Barry Jenkins told reporters backstage that he received no immediate explanation for the mix-up, though &quot;it made a very special feeling even more special, but not in the way I expected.&quot;

Jenkins added, &quot;Please write this down: The folks from &#39;La La Land&#39; were so gracious.&quot;
