4:27 PM PT -- A representative for Crispin Glover tells us ... "Mr. Glover denies these baseless allegations in the strongest possible terms."

The rep claims ... "The reality is that on March 2, 2024, Mr. Glover was the victim of an unprovoked felony assault by Jane Doe at his Los Angeles residence.  Mr. Glover called LAPD, which came to the scene, investigated, and arrested Jane Doe.  These facts are documented by law enforcement records and by the restraining order filed by Mr. Glover against Jane Doe at that time."

The statement ends with ... "Mr. Glover intends to vigorously defend himself and pursue all available relief.  He is confident the judicial process will expose this lawsuit as a meritless fabrication."

Crispin is being sued by a Jane Doe, who claims Crispin lured her from Europe to L.A. with false promises of a new life and career in Hollywood ... only for Crispin to allegedly turn out to be a violent control freak.

In the lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, the woman claims she met Crispin through social media in 2015 and he would persistently message her for years to come to L.A..
