T.I. and Tiny are seeing Dismissal of Lawsuit
In a recent legal development, rapper T.I. and his wife, Tiny, are pushing to dismiss a lawsuit alleging misconduct dating back to 2005. The couple, known for their music careers and reality TV fame, faces accusations of sexual assault and other charges from a plaintiff identified as Jane Doe.
According to legal filings reported by AllHipHop, T.I. and Tiny’s attorneys argue that the claims made against them are beyond the statute of limitations, asserting that the alleged incidents occurred over sixteen years ago. Furthermore, they contest the validity of the accusations, stating that the lawsuit fails to provide sufficient evidence to support the claims of sexual battery, assault, negligence, and false imprisonment.
The lawsuit claims that the couple met the plaintiff at a Los Angeles nightclub while she was serving in the Air Force. Allegations suggest that Tiny may have tampered with her drink, leading to an encounter at a hotel room where the plaintiff alleges inappropriate behavior by T.I. and Tiny. Despite vehement denials from the couple, the lawsuit seeks to reopen the case under California’s Sexual Abuse and Cover Up Accountability Act.
In response to the allegations, T.I. and Tiny have maintained their innocence, labeling the lawsuit as an extortion attempt. In a statement shared with HipHopDX, their legal team emphasized their steadfast denial of the claims over the past three years, characterizing the accusations as baseless and evolving.
The couple seeks to have the case dismissed with prejudice, aiming to prevent any future filings related to these allegations. Their legal strategy underscores their determination to clear their names and defend against what they perceive as unfounded claims.
As the legal proceedings unfold, T.I. and Tiny continue to assert their innocence, looking forward to addressing these allegations in court and resolving the matter decisively.
