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 in the Central District of California, which was “denied with prejudice” by U.S. District Judge Michael Fitzgerald, the outlet revealed.
The reason was because the ‘original action’ was still pending in the state of Mississippi and the judge ordered to ‘stay’ the California case in the meantime.
The Grammy winner then requested that the California case be moved to Mississippi.
A former makeup artist who worked for his wife Trisha Yearwood has accused him of sexual assault and battery in court papers filed in California state court.
Before the makeup artist filed her lawsuit, Brooks was aware of her allegations and filed an anonymous lawsuit to fight back, using the name ‘John Doe’ in a lawsuit she filed in Mississippi in September, CNN reported.

‘Jane Roe’ was originally hired to do Yearwood’s hair and makeup in 1999, and Brooks eventually recruited her to do it for him in 2017, she claims.
The plaintiff, who filed anonymously as ‘Jane Roe’ in October, alleges that the country icon took her with him to Los Angeles for a Grammy event honoring R&B singer Sam Moore in May 2019.
In the lawsuit, the plaintiff claims that the Friends in Low Places singer booked only one hotel suite for them both, and when she requested separate accommodations, he did not provide it.
She also accused him of accosting her naked at the door, dragging her to another room, hanging her upside down by her ankles and raping her, in court documents obtained by Dailymail.com.
In her lawsuit, the makeup artist alleged that Brooks sent her sexually explicit text messages, told her about his sexual fantasies, including commenting about engaging in threesomes with his wife Trisha Yearwood, and talked about sex with her.
She also accused him of exposing his buttocks and genitals to her on more than one occasion and of repeatedly changing his clothes in front of her.
According to the makeup artist’s lawsuit, Brooks allegedly made advances to her at her home in 2019, before the trip to Los Angeles, when she says the rape occurred.
She claims she was at Brooks’ house, waiting for him to find her so she could put on her makeup, when he emerged naked and erect from the shower.

She alleges that he then ‘grabbed her hands and forced’ them to have an erection, telling her that he harbored fantasies that she would perform fellatio on him while wearing his glasses until he finally climaxed on her face.
Hours later, the artist denied the rape accusations against him, calling them an extortion of “secret money.”
Brooks responded to the allegations in a statement to DailyMail.com: “For the past two months, I have been harassed to no end with threats, lies, and tragic stories about what my future would be if I didn’t write a check to many.” million dollars.”
‘Hush money, no matter how much or how little it is, is still hush money. “In my opinion, that means that I am admitting behavior that I am incapable of: unpleasant acts that no human being should do to another,” he added.
Brooks, who previously denied the allegations in a complaint filed under the name ‘John Doe,’ said: ‘We filed a lawsuit against this individual almost a month ago alleging extortion and defamation of character. We present it anonymously for the sake of the families on both sides.
Brooks said the situation “was like a loaded gun was pointed in my face.”
He added: “I want to play music tonight.” I want to continue our good works in the future. It breaks my heart that these wonderful things are in doubt now. I trust the system, I am not afraid of the truth and I am not the man they have painted me as.
