More Details On The Dismissed Sexual Assault Case Against T.I. & Tiny
According to court documents obtained by AllHipHop, the dismissal of the suit was filed on Thursday, August 8. It was allegedly approved by Judge Sherilyn Peace Garnett at 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 representative for the couple reportedly told the outlet.
The outlet adds that the suit was reportedly “dismissed without prejudice.” According to Shouse California Law Group, this means 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 previously reported, a Jane Doe plaintiff filed the suit against 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 in the U.S. Air Force. Furthermore, she alleged she met the couple at a nightclub one evening. Doe alleged she accepted a drink from Harris and later left the club with the couple and two unknown women.

Later that evening, they allegedly arrived at a hotel where the two women were ordered to leave. There, she alleged she undressed with the couple, they showered together, and she was ordered to lay on a bed.
Doe ultimately alleged that Tiny rubbed her naked body on her. Additionally, she alleged that T.I. penetrated her with his toe. Furthermore, she allegedly passed out and was awoken the next day to her vagina being in “serious pain,” itching and throbbing.

Furthermore, as The Shade Room previously reported, T.I. and Tiny reacted to the lawsuit via an exclusive statement 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 stated. “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 officially filed a motion to dismiss the case in July. The couple reportedly wanted the suit dismissed “in its entirety, with prejudice.” Additionally, the couple reportedly asserted that Doe “fail[ed] to allege facts” to prove her claims.
