Woman files to dismiss lawsuit against Tiffany Haddish and Aries Spears
A woman who accused comedians Tiffany Haddish and Aries Spears of coercing her and a brother into recording sexually explicit skits when they were children
LOS ANGELES — A woman who accused comedians Tiffany Haddish and Aries Spears of coercing her and a brother into recording sexually explicit skits when they were children filed a request Tuesday to dismiss the claim.
The first page of the filing, obtained by NBC News, asked the U.S. District Court for Central California to dismiss her lawsuit with prejudice, which means it could not be filed again. No reason was given on the first page for the move to withdraw.
The woman, identified in the original claim as Jane Doe, did not immediately respond to a request for comment. In a statement to TMZ, she said Tuesday that "we are glad that we can all put this behind us."
"My family and I have known Tiffany Haddish for many years — and we now know that she would never harm me or my brother or help anyone else do anything that could harm us," the statement said.
Attorneys for Haddish did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Representatives for Spears also did not respond to a request for comment.
