Cristiano Ronaldo’s rape accuser says she can’t track down the soccer star to physically serve him with a summons and complaint and is now pleading with the judge for permission to publish the legal papers in international newspapers to get his attention, according to court documents.
DailyMail.com has exclusively obtained the court papers in Kathryn Mayorga’s rape lawsuit against Ronaldo in which her lawyers lay out multiple attempts to reach the Juventus forward over the last four months at his Italian home or his soccer club in Italy to no avail.
The Italian process server hired by Mayorga’s team to serve the 34-year-old in person claims the community are protecting Ronaldo, saying the Juventus players are treated like ‘royalty’ there, with property records for the soccer star completely ‘blacked out.’
The court documents also reveal Mayorga is seeking a 180-day extension and approval from the judge to publish the summons in Italian and American newspapers as a last-ditch effort to get the soccer star’s attention.
Former teacher Kathryn Mayorga claims that Ronaldo raped her at his Las Vegas hotel room in June 2009.
The father-of-four has emphatically denied all claims.
The latest documents show that none of Ronaldo’s lawyers have provided his home address to the process server, despite repeated requests.
According to the documents, in September 2018 a process server hired by Mayorga contacted two of Ronaldo’s lawyers in Nevada. Both said they were not authorized to accept services on behalf of the soccer player and that Ronaldo ‘expected service to comply with international law.’
‘In short, the defendant [Ronaldo] will not voluntarily submit to the jurisdiction of this court,’ records show.
Mayorga’s lawyers have vowed to take the case to America’s Supreme Court if needed.
