John Travolta wasn’t in LA at the time of sexual assault allegations, say his lawyers

’s lawyers said that their client was in New York City the day he is accused of sexually assaulting a in a first incident in Los Angeles.

And they believe that new evidence of a restaurant receipt and a photograph of the actor proves it.

A receipt from a meal the Pulp Fiction actor ate at Mr. Chow restaurant in New York on January 16, 2012, has now emerged, the same day he is alleged to have sexually harassed an anonymous masseur in a .

The receipt, obtained by TMZ.com, allegedly shows that John Travolta dined at the famous eatery and was presented with a check late in the evening. He paid a bill of $382.69 for the meal, as well as a $100 tip.

John Travolta, who has described the claims as “baseless”, was also photographed in New York on January 16th.

The actor’ sources also say they have proof positive of the location and date of the photo

Yesterday a second man filed a lawsuit claiming John Travolta tried to grab his penis during a on January 28 in Atlanta, Georgia but John’s attorney Marty Singer has denied both claims.

However, Okorie Okorocha, the lawyer representing both alleged victims – who are each seeking $2 million in damages – claims there are over 100 other men prepared to come forward with similar stories about John Travolta.

Okorie Okorocha told RadarOnline.com: “By the time this case is over Marty Singer will have to accuse more than 100 men of lying because I have been contacted by people, mostly men, that have first hand information about similar behavior on John Travolta’s part to that contained in the lawsuits I have already filed against him.

“I have witnesses and the potential for more accusers in virtually every state of the union who have called me.

“I’m currently in the process of investigating their claims and verifying the information before possible further action is taken.

“In response to Mr. Singer who said he will take legal action – not only against the claimant, but also the claimant’s lawyer – for malicious prosecution, Okorie said: ‘If Marty Singer thinks he can sue me on the validity of Mr. Travolta’s denials, and if he wants to file the lawsuit now, I will give him a waiver allowing him to proceed with it at this stage of the case, even though under California law he has to wait until he wins the case, and that absolutely won’t be happening. It will never happen, he won’t win, so we might as well get it over with now. Bring it on.”

Yesterday in a statement, a spokesman for John Travolta, who fully denies the initial sexual battery lawsuit, said: “This lawsuit is a complete fiction and fabrication. None of the events claimed in the suit ever occurred.

“The plaintiff, who refuses to give their name, knows that the suit is a baseless lie. It is for that reason that the plaintiff hasn’t been identified with a name, even though it is required to do so.

“On the date when plaintiff claims John met him, John was not in California, and it can be proved that he was on the East Coast. Plaintiff’s attorney has filed this suit to try and get his 15 minutes of fame. John intends to get this case thrown out, and then he will sue the attorney and Plaintiff for malicious prosecution.”

According to RadarOnline, the second accuser claims to have “substantial documentation and numerous witnesses regarding the substance of Travolta’s actions”.

John Travolta’s lawyer Marty Singer has branded the accusation just “as absurd and ridiculous as the first one”.

Marty Singer also revealed he will take legal action – not only against the claimant, but also the claimant’s lawyer – for malicious prosecution.
