Jimmie Allen’s former manager has dropped the sexual assault case against the star on Thursday after reaching an agreement, per People – after initially filing the court documents last year in May.
The country singer, 38 – who still faces another sexual assault case from another woman, which was filed in June 2023 – had been accused of allegedly raping and sexually assaulting the former manager over an 18-month period.
The woman — who went by the name Jane Doe in court documents — agreed to drop the lawsuit in Middle Tennessee District Court, effective March 14.
A representative for the former manager, FeganScott LLC, also released an official statement to the business.
“FeganScott can confirm that Jane Doe and Jimmie Allen have entered into a mutual agreement regarding plaintiff’s claims and Mr. Allen’s counterclaims and have agreed to dismiss them.”

“The decision only reflects that both parties want to bypass litigation,” the representative added.
Despite Jane Doe officially dropping the sexual assault lawsuit against Allen, she is still suing Jimmie’s former management company, Wide Open Music, and its founder, Ash Bowers.
Back in May 2023, the woman in her early 20s – who was previously employed by Allen’s management company – alleged that the artist first raped her in March 2021 and took her virginity.
The unnamed woman also claimed that Allen would repeatedly rape her, grope her, videotape them having sex and harass her with calls and texts, even when he was on his honeymoon. Variety reported at the time.
Jimmie has since denied all allegations and says the couple’s sexual relationship was consensual.
In a statement to DailyMail.com, Allen said: “It is deeply troubling and hurtful that someone I considered one of my closest friends, colleagues and confidants would make allegations that have no truth whatsoever to them .”
“I acknowledge that we had a sexual relationship – one that lasted almost two years,” he added.
‘During that time she never accused me of any wrongdoing and she spoke of our relationship and friendship as something she wanted to continue indefinitely.’

‘Only after things ended between us did she hire a lawyer to reach out and ask for money, which makes me question her motives. The simple fact is that her accusations are not only false, but extremely damaging.’
Jimmie continued: ‘I have worked incredibly hard to build my career and I intend to defend her claims and take any other legal steps necessary to protect my reputation.’
Jane Doe’s lawyer Elizabeth Fegan responded that their initial demand was to meet to discuss Allen’s behavior with the singer and his legal counsel to resolve the claims.
The lawyer claims Allen declined, with the response ‘tinged with threats that his team would take steps to publicly smear my client’ – leaving Jane no choice but to ‘protect herself’ by filing the complaint.
At the time of the court filing, Allen had been sued for sexual abuse, assault, false imprisonment, sex trafficking and emotional distress — which have now been dropped.
Bowers and Wide Open Music were also sued for gross negligence and participation in an enterprise involved in sex trafficking, among other counts.
Jane began her job at Wide Open Music in April 2020 and claims that the first time she met Allen was at a remote taping for CMA Summer Jam in May 2020 – that he shouted from the stage ‘Are you single?’
While his former manager officially dropped the lawsuit earlier Thursday, Jimmie still faces another sexual assault lawsuit that is currently ongoing.

A woman – who went by the name Jane Doe 2 – filed the suit in June 2023, alleging that Allen had secretly filmed her having sex.
She claimed the singer “randomly” approached her on a plane in May 2022 and began stalking her with daily phone calls for two months, per the report. Variety.
They then arranged to meet in Las Vegas, where the woman claims she was sexually assaulted in a hotel room.
She claimed Allen had intercourse with her without a condom and told her he ‘wanted to get her pregnant’ – despite her wishes to use protection. She also claimed she repeatedly asked him to stop during intercourse – which he ignored.
The suit stated that Jane Doe 2 saw Allen’s phone hidden in the hotel room closet and it had recorded their intercourse without her knowledge.
She claimed she picked up the phone, left the hotel room and flew home alone before filing a police report and turning the phone into the police.
Jane Doe 2 is suing Allen and his bodyguard and the company that employed his bodyguard at the time. She is suing Allen for battery, assault, invasion of privacy and emotional distress.
The following month, Jimmie contradicted the woman who accused him of sexual assault, claiming he filmed her having sex without her consent.

According to legal documents obtained by TMZ, Allen said the sex was consensual and that the woman told him she was “fine” with him setting up his phone to record their intercourse.
In the counterclaim, Allen confirmed everything Jane Doe 2 said about their meeting and how they traveled to Las Vegas — but he said they kissed on the balcony and that when he asked to set his camera, she agreed.
Allen stated in the countersuit that they had consensual, unprotected sex with the camera in ‘plain view’ on a bookcase at the foot of the bed.
He claimed that he fell asleep after intercourse and after he woke up, the woman and his phone were gone.
Allen stated that he believes the woman took the phone and sent it to the police and that he did not get it back – so he wants compensation from her.
In a statement announcing the rebuttal, Allen again denied the sexual assault claim, saying: ‘As the son and brother of rape victims and the father of daughters, these false allegations are extremely hurtful to me and everyone around me.’

However, last year in October – shortly after Alexis gave birth to their third child – the pair were reported to have reconciled; seen in 2022 in Las Vegas
In April 2023, before the lawsuits came to light, Jimmie and his wife Alexis Gale – whom he married in 2021 – announced their separation, despite her being pregnant with their third child at the time.
However, last year in October – shortly after Alexis gave birth to their third child – it was reported that the couple had reconciled.
A representative told People at the time, their split was ‘never fully seen through legally’, adding that the pair ‘decided to work things out together and are still together.’
The following month in November, Allen’s divorce attorneys told TMZ they ‘lost communication’ with their client as he works on his marriage to Alexis.
