A federal judge in Camden, New Jersey, has ruled that a Christian rock band’s management, talent agent and lead singer are not vicariously liable for the sexual assault of a teenage fan committed by a member of the band.

However, the judge also held that the band’s appeal to fans under the age of 18 may create a heightened duty for managers to protect those fans from unlawful sexual contact with performers. The judge also said the plaintiff could file an amended complaint stating “such a cause of action, against an appropriate defendant.”
