A ‘Jane Doe’ who was seeking damages against rapper Snoop Dogg and another musician for alleged sexual assault has dropped her civil suit against the men.
His lawyer has filed a notice of withdrawal from the lawsuit without prejudice Wednesday in U.S. District Court in Central California, according to court records. The filing did not provide a reason for the action.
The woman claimed she was assaulted by Snoop Dogg, real name Calvin Broadus, and his longtime friend Bishop Don “Magic” Juan (Donald Campbell) after a concert in 2013.
Jane Doe was described in the lawsuit as a dancer, model, host and actress, and claimed she had worked with Snoop Dogg and performed with him on stage. The suit alleged that Snoop Dogg entered a bathroom that Jane Doe used in her studio and forced her to perform oral sex.
The rapper poked fun at “gold digger season” in an Instagram post the day the lawsuit was filed, though he didn’t specifically refer to it. “Be careful…keep your guard up,” he added.
The lawsuit was filed in February just days before Snoop Dogg performed at the Super Bowl halftime show at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. He had called the halftime performance – with Dr. Dre, Eminem, Kendrick Lamar and Mary J. Blige – “a dream come true”.
They also said that Jane Doe did not provide proof that she had ever been employed by the rapper.
