#UCLA Dr. James Heaps Lawsuit
Thousands of Women Have Accused Dr. Heaps of Sexual Misconduct
In February 2022, the University of California agreed to pay $243 million to settlement claims from more than 200 women alleging misconduct by Dr. James Heaps, a gynecologist who worked at university’s Los Angeles campus.
This is the second settlement reached in cases regarding the doctor’s sexual misconduct toward patients. In November 2020, the university announced a $73 million class action settlement to resolve the claims of more than 5,000 survivors. Approximately 600 women chose to opt out of the class action. The recent $243 million settlement resolves around 200 of those claims.
Allegations against Dr. Heaps span decades, from the early 1980s to 2018.
