A judge has dismissed a lawsuit accusing T.I. and his wife, Tiny Harris, of sexual assault and battery.
Jane Doe sued the couple for sexual assault, battery, sexual battery, negligence, false imprisonment and intentional infliction of emotional distress back in January. She says that in 2005, she was drugged and assaulted by them but the couple denied the allegations, claiming the alleged victim attempted to extort them before filing the lawsuit.
“All the claims asserted in the Complaint are time-barred because the statute of limitations for such claims has long expired over sixteen years ago,” the Harrises’ attorneys wrote.
“Further, notwithstanding the fact that Defendants Clifford Harris (‘Mr. Harris’) and Tameka Harris (‘Mrs. Harris’) (collectively ‘Defendants’ or ‘Harrises’), deny that any of the alleged conduct even occurred, the Complaint fails to allege facts to sufficiently establish any of the claims alleged in the Complaint … Accordingly, Defendants seek to dismiss all the claims in the Complaint … for failure to state a claim upon which any relief can be granted. Because there is no possible remedy for these deficiencies … Defendants seek dismissal of this entire action.”
