Garth Brooks’ request to dismiss his sexual assault lawsuit has been denied, according to Fox News.
The country star, 62, filed the motion last month, which was ‘denied with prejudice,’ the outlet revealed.
In October, a former makeup artist who worked for his wife Trisha Yearwood accused him of sexual assault and battery in court documents filed in a California state court.
The plaintiff, who filed anonymously as ‘Jane Roe,’ alleges the country icon brought her with him to Los Angeles for a Grammy event honoring the R&B singer Sam Moore in May 2019.
In the suit, the plaintiff claims the Friends in Low Places singer booked only one hotel suite there for both of them, and when she asked for a separate accommodation, he would not provide one.
Hours later, the artist denied the rape accusations against him, calling it a ‘hush money’ shakedown.
