Garth Brooks Seeks to Dismiss Sexual Assault Case and Change Venue

The country singer aims to move the lawsuit to federal court, challenging the allegations as a 'shakedown.'

Garth Brooks has filed a motion to dismiss a sexual assault and battery lawsuit and move the case from California to federal court in Mississippi.
The accuser, known as Jane Roe, claims Brooks assaulted her during a 2019 work trip and is seeking over $75,000 in damages.
Brooks has denied the allegations, asserting they are part of an extortion attempt to extract millions of dollars from him.
Roe's legal team accuses Brooks of using his resources to intimidate and control his alleged victim, while Brooks claims the lawsuit is defamatory.
A hearing on the motion to dismiss is scheduled for December 9, while Brooks continues to perform at his Caesars Palace residency.
