 LOS ANGELES (AP) - Robert De Niro has asked a court to dismiss a lawsuit brought against him by Fireman's Fund Insurance Co.
The 63-year-old Oscar winner filed a motion Friday in United States District Court seeking the dismissal of the insurance company's complaint, calling it "a case that should never have been filed."
According to court documents, De Niro was diagnosed with prostate cancer on October 15, 2003. Two days prior, on Oct. 13, 2003, he signed a medical certificate requested by Fireman's Fund stating that he had never been "diagnosed with or treated for" any prostate disorder. The actor underwent a prostate-gland biopsy on Oct. 10.
