Music producer Detail, whose real name is Noel Fisher, at the 2015 BMI R&B/Hip-Hop Awards in Beverly Hills, Calif. A court has awarded a $15 million judgment to a model and aspiring singer who alleged in a lawsuit that she was sexually and emotionally abuse by the Grammy Award-winning music producer.

LOS ANGELES >> A court has awarded $15 million to a model and aspiring singer who alleged in a lawsuit that she was sexually and emotionally abused by Grammy Award-winning music producer Detail.

A Los Angeles Superior Court judge ruled Wednesday in favor of Kristina Buch and against Detail, whose real name is Noel Fisher, because he did not respond to the lawsuit she filed last year.

Buch’s lawsuit said Fisher had agreed to help her launch a music career, but soon became aggressive and abusive, demanding sex and raping her when she refused.

Fisher’s attorney did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment.

The Associated Press typically does name alleged sexual abuse victims, but Buch agreed to make her name public via the lawsuit and public statements by her lawyers.
