Garth Brooks Moves to Dismiss Assault Case, Requests Venue Change After Allegations

Ongoing Legal Battle

Country music icon Garth Brooks is currently navigating a public and contentious legal dispute over allegations of misconduct. On Friday, November 8, he filed a motion to dismiss the lawsuit brought against him, with a decisive hearing set for December 9 that could determine the outcome. This latest filing follows an earlier attempt to transfer the case from a Mississippi state court to federal court.

The plaintiff, referred to as Jane Roe and formerly a hairstylist for Brooks, alleges that on a 2019 work trip to Los Angeles, he acted inappropriately by making unsolicited advances, exposing himself, and sending her explicit messages. Roe, who started working with Brooks in 2017 after previously styling for his wife, Trisha Yearwood, contends that these incidents came after years of professional collaboration. Brooks, however, vehemently refutes the accusations, insisting they are unfounded and meant only to harm his reputation.

To counter Roe’s claims, Brooks has initiated his own lawsuit, arguing that Roe attempted to extort him with the threat of going public unless he paid a substantial sum. Roe’s attorney, Jeanne M. Christensen, countered by saying, “This is more bullying and intimidation from Garth Brooks, who has been trying to silence our client since learning she planned to hold him accountable.”

As this high-stakes case moves forward, sources close to the situation report that Yearwood remains unwavering in her support, confident in both Brooks' innocence and the legal process. With the December hearing on the horizon, the showbiz world awaits a resolution to this escalating saga.
