Perhaps the actor, who currently stars in the TV drama Brothers and Sisters, simply has more pressing matters on his mind.
He is, after all, actor is in the middle of a bitter legal battle with his former nanny, Jessica Gibson.
He is suing his 24-year-old former employee for violating a confidentiality agreement.
Gibson has since launched action to countersue the actor and his wife Sheryl for sexual harassment, claiming he groped her and exposed himself.
A second nanny, Laura Boyce, also filed suit for harassment.
The couple, who have two sons Matthew, 14, and John Owen, 12, deny the allegations. The next hearing is scheduled for June 19.
