Steven Tyler faced a lawsuit alleging sexual assault, sexual abuse and more filed by Julia Misley in December 2022.

Now parts of the case against the 75-year-old rock star – who dates Aimee Preston, 36 – have been dismissed by a Los Angeles court.

This week, the court ruled it would strike out the portions of Misley’s complaint that alleged she endured intentional infliction of emotional distress (IIED) based on the releases of Tyler’s two memoirs.

Misley, whose last name was formerly Holcomb, accused him of sexually assaulting her when she was a teenager in the 70s.

She alleged the music legend used his fame and status to ‘groom, manipulate, exploit and sexually assault’ her.

She also claimed he drugged her after gaining custody from her mother so he could take her on tour.

In his memories does the noise in my head make you? Tyler wrote that he ‘almost took a teenage bride’ after falling in love with a woman Holcomb alleged to be her.

‘She was sixteen, she knew how to be ugly and there wasn’t a hair on it,’ he wrote in the book, which names the girl as ‘Diana’.

Another excerpt reads: ‘I went to sleep at her parents’ house for a couple of nights and her parents fell in love with me, signed papers for me to have custody so I wouldn’t get arrested if I took her out of state . I took her on a trip.’

Misley said the publication ‘retraumatized’ her and her family, saying in a statement: ‘I am grateful for this new opportunity to take action and be heard.’

The complaint stated that Misley met Tyler in 1973 after attending an Aerosmith concert in Oregon.

She was then invited backstage and later to Tyler’s hotel room, where she accused the musician of sexually abusing her.

He is said to have flown her out to an Aerosmith concert in Seattle, where he again sexually assaulted her.

The following year, Tyler met with Misley’s mother and ‘convinced her to sign over her daughter’s guardianship to him.’

In April 2023, Tyler told the court that he was Misley’s legal guardian at the time, giving him immunity from related laws, past and present.

The court’s dismissal comes weeks after a separate civil lawsuit accusing the Aerosmith frontman of sexually assaulting a teenage model nearly 50 years ago was dismissed by a New York judge, per TMZ.

In the November archive, plaintiff has Jeanne Bellino claimed that Tyler forcibly kissed, groped and humped her dry back in 1975 when she was 17 and he was 27.

Bellino said the alleged assault left her alivee-long physical injury, and she sought unspecified damages.

The case could be brought against Tyler due to NYC’s extended statute of limitations of g.end-based violence.

But a judge ruled that the alleged assault, while disturbing, did not ‘present a serious risk of physical harm’ to Bellino, and the lawsuit was thrown out.

She had until Wednesday March 13 to amend her complaint.
