The lawsuit, which was filed in January of 2018, in full accused Too Short of sexual battery, sexual harassment, gender violence, gender discrimination and false imprisonment.

Officials with the Los Angeles County District Attorney rejected a criminal case against the rapper, citing a lack of evidence.

Too Short, whose real name is Todd Anthony Shaw, denied the accusations and said that he was being extorted. 

He denied sexually assaulting Louis and said they only engaged in foreplay.

‘There was nothing I would ever do that is not consensual,’ he told TMZ in 2018, later filing a counter suit in the case.

While speaking about the #MeToo movement in January of 2018 to TMZ, the rapper said he was pretty sure most women were telling the truth, but a ‘few are probably trying to do the money grab.’

‘You gotta keep everything above water, pretty clear,’ he said of contemporary conditions in working.  

He also claimed Louis’s claims were in retaliation to him cutting her from his label.  after a professional relationship didn’t pan out.  

Louis, in her new court filings, requested that the case be dismissed with prejudice, which would prevent her from filing it again in the future. It was not immediately clear if the West Coast rap mainstay had reached a settlement with his accuser.
