More Details On The Dismissed Sexual Assault Case Against T.I. & Tiny
According to courtroom paperwork obtained by AllHipHop, the dismissal of the swimsuit was filed on Thursday, August 8. It was allegedly authorized by Judge Sherilyn Peace Garnett on the United States District Court of California.
“The court agreed with Tip and Tameka that Jane Doe doesn’t appear to have any viable claims. As Tip and Tameka stated three years ago, these allegations are some of the many false, salacious allegations thrown out into the media in a cheap attempt to extort money from them,” a consultant for the couple reportedly informed the outlet.
The outlet provides that the swimsuit was reportedly “dismissed without prejudice.” According to Shouse California Law Group, this implies the case “is dismissed but can still be refiled at a later point.”
Here’s What The Lawsuit Accused The Couple Of
As The Shade Room beforehand reported, a Jane Doe plaintiff filed the swimsuit towards the couple. Doe accused the pair of sexually assaulting her “in or around 2005.”
At the time of the alleged incident, Doe was reportedly enlisted within the U.S. Air Force. Furthermore, she alleged she met the couple at a nightclub one night. Doe alleged she accepted a drink from Harris and later left the membership with the couple and two unknown ladies.

Furthermore, as The Shade Room beforehand reported, T.I. and Tiny reacted to the lawsuit by way of an unique assertion shared with TMZ.
“On the heels of positivity, negativity always rears its ugly head. This plaintiff has been threatening to file this lawsuit for THREE years. For THREE years, we have emphatically and categorically denied these allegations,” they said. “For THREE years we have maintained our innocence and refused to pay these extortionate demands for things we didn’t do. For THREE years, we’ve maintained the same position while the claims in this story have changed time and time again. Our position is clear… We are innocent of these fake claims, we will not be shaken down, and we look forward to our day in court.”
According to PEOPLE, T.I. and Tiny formally filed a movement to dismiss the case in July. The couple reportedly needed the swimsuit dismissed “in its entirety, with prejudice.” Additionally, the couple reportedly asserted that Doe “fail[ed] to allege facts” to show her claims.
