A Los Angeles court has upheld an arbitration ruling in favor of House of Cards producers after the company accused the actor of sexual misconduct.

Kevin Spacey has lost his appeal to overturn a $31 million arbitration award to the producers of the House of Cards TV show after a judge ordered him to pay the full amount on Wednesday.

The actor was originally ordered to pay the sum in November following allegations of sexual misconduct involving several young crew members working on the TV show.

Spacey, who played Frank Underwood, was kicked off the series during its sixth season after he was accused of “systematically preying upon, sexually harassing, and groping young men that he had worked with throughout his career on film, television, and theatre projects,” as stated in the original court filings from MCR.
