What does he mean he can't apply the law "retroactively"? She is suing him now, in 2018, when the law applies.
Because the relationship they had (producer/actress) wasn't one of the covered relationships when it allegedly occurred (pre-2018). You can't retroactively make something illegal.

Thanks for clearing that up. I think her problem was that she sued under the new law, she probably would have had a case if she just did a standard sexual harassment and defamation suit.
