Nigel Lythgoe
The former "American Idol" producer filed his response just hours before he was sued for alleged sexual assault by a fourth woman.
The TV producer, who is facing two lawsuits, including one from pop star Paula Abdul, is stepping down as a judge of the competition show he co-created.
The filing arrives just days after Abdul accused the former "American Idol" producer of sexually assaulting her on multiple occasions.
The celebrity judge claimed Lythgoe attempted to sexually assault her on more than one occasion and also groped her assistant.
