Breests lawyers responded to Haggis counter-claim in a statement obtained Thursday by the AP.

Ms. Breest will not be intimidated or deterred from seeking justice.
Haggis has long been a Hollywood heavyweight.
The allegations against Haggis come as Hollywood continues to be swept up by a wave of sexual misconduct claims.
(Weinstein denies any allegation of non-consensual sex.)
Haggis, in October, weighed in on the Weinstein news in an interviewwithThe Guardian.

I mean, he was a predator and a predator is a predator.
But what about those who would rather look the other way?
