Chris Brown’s Lawsuit Over Alleged Nightclub Attack Dismissed by Accuser

The artist still faces criminal charges stemming from the same London incident

A music producer who accused Chris Brown of beating him with a tequila bottle and then stomping on him at a London nightclub has dropped his lawsuit against the singer.

Billboard reported the news, citing Los Angeles court documents in which Amadou “Abe” Diaw requested Friday that his suit against Brown be dismissed with prejudice, meaning the case cannot be filed again in court. A settlement between the two parties has not yet been confirmed.

Brown was accused of attacking Diaw in February 2023, resulting in a hospitalization and, later, a $16 million lawsuit related to the attack. Brown pleaded not guilty to a charge of grievous bodily harm with intent, The New York Times previously reported.

The singer is still facing criminal charges stemming from the case. Brown was arrested in May at a Manchester hotel and was charged with the count of causing grievous bodily harm with intent, as well as assault causing actual bodily harm and carrying an offensive weapon.

A judge initially ruled that he should be held without bail due to the “extremely serious” allegation against him. The artist spent several days in jail until a judge granted him a $6.7 million bail during a custody hearing.

A representative for Brown and Diaw did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
