Sam Altman is fighting to dismiss punitive damages claims from his sister's lawsuit, which accuses him of sexual abuse over 20 years ago. Altman denies these allegations.

In a recent court filing, Altman argued that Missouri's child sexual abuse law does not permit punitive damages in this case. He urged the dismissal of the lawsuit.

Annie Altman's accusations have led to family discord, with Sam Altman countering with a defamation suit, amid financial disagreements and past social media claims.
