County court documents viewed by<em> Billboard<\/em>, Diaw requested on Friday (June 27) that the suit be dismissed with prejudice, meaning he can\u2019t refile the case. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tA filing with prejudice request can signal that a settlement was reached, but that is yet to be confirmed by either party involved. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tDiaw claimed that Brown struck him multiple times with a bottle of Don Julio 1942 at Tape nightclub and proceeded to stomp on him, which allegedly left the music producer injured and temporarily unconscious. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tBrown is still facing criminal charges in the case. He was arrested at a Manchester hotel on May 15 as he arrived in Europe for tour rehearsals and was charged with one count of causing grievous bodily harm with intent, as well as additional counts of assault causing bodily harm and possessing an offensive weapon.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tBrown was initially denied bond, which put his Breezy Bowl XX tour in jeopardy, until the R&amp;B singer secured a lucrative bail package for $6.75 million on May 21.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe R&amp;B star appeared in London court on June 20 to plead not guilty to a charge of serious assault. He\u2019s due back in court on July 11; a trial has been set for Oct. 26, 2026.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tBrown is currently wrapping up the European leg of his Breezy Bowl XX tour with dates set for Glasgow and Paris this week. He\u2019ll then head to the U.S., where the first show of his stadium trek is slated for Miami on July 30.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\t<em>Billboard<\/em> has reached out to attorneys for Brown and Diaw.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A lawsuit accusing Chris Brown of assault at a London nightclub in February 2023 has been dropped by the accuser, Abe Diaw.
