Key Takeaway
A sexual assault lawsuit against Trey Songz has been dismissed by a judge due to the woman’s failure to respond to Songz’s motion to dismiss, marking the third complaint to be dismissed in the case.
The Allegations
The lawsuit was originally filed in June by an unnamed woman, who accused the singer-songwriter of exposing her breast at a Connecticut casino event in 2013. The woman initially raised the allegation in a demand letter to Songz in 2022, seeking a settlement of over $5 million. When Songz did not comply, she proceeded to file a civil lawsuit in the summer of 2023, claiming that Songz had pulled down her bathing suit top during a “Foxwoods Liquid Sundays with Trey Songz” event.
The Legal Proceedings
The woman, who filed the suit under the pseudonym Jane Doe, made multiple amendments to her original complaint. However, Songz filed a motion to dismiss, arguing that the statute of limitations barred her claim. The judge granted the motion but allowed the woman to amend her complaint for a third time. Despite this opportunity, the woman did not respond to Songz’s subsequent motion to dismiss, leading to the judge’s decision to dismiss the case.
