Judge Tosses Chris Brown’s Defamation Lawsuit Over ‘History of Violence’ Documentary

Chris Brown‘s legal fight over the Investigation Discovery documentary ‘Chris Brown: A History of Violence’ has hit a major roadblock.

Full story below…

According to Billboard, a judge has officially dismissed the singer’s lawsuit against Warner Bros. and production company Ample.

Brown filed the suit last year, claiming the 2024 documentary defamed him by presenting allegations of abuse and sexual misconduct that he insists were false, despite what he says was evidence provided to the producers.

However, Judge Colin Leis wasn’t persuaded. After personally reviewing the full documentary, he ruled that:

“The court has personally viewed the entire documentary. The documentary recites most of the inconsistencies plaintiff notes, including the existence of the text messages. Media defendants thus presented a ‘fair and true’ report of [the woman’s] statements and the judicial record and proceedings.”

Brown has remained silent on the ruling, though he does retain the option to appeal.
