A misdemeanor complaint has been filed against former New York governor Andrew Cuomo in a court in Albany, the state’s capital, a spokesman for the New York state courts said on Thursday.

Cuomo’s departure followed an inquiry that found that the Democrat had sexually harassed 11 women and capped a remarkable fall from grace for a powerful politician once seen as a likely contender for the White House.

“As this is a sex crime, a redacted complaint will be available shortly,” the spokesman, Lucian Chalfen, said in an emailed statement.

Spokespeople for Cuomo were not immediately reachable for comment.

Cuomo resigned as governor in August after 10 and a half years in office.

New York attorney general Letitia James said a five-month independent investigation concluded that Cuomo had engaged in conduct that violated federal and state laws.
