Chris Brown Faces $70 Million Lawsuit Over Alleged Dog Attack
The case is scheduled for civil trial to begin on January 27, 2025.
Avila’s $70 million lawsuit alleges Brown’s “aggressive” 200+ lb. Caucasian Shepherd, Hades, “brutally mauled, bit and attacked her” when she was working at his Los Angeles home in December 2020.
Hades apparently had a microchip naming Brown’s company, Black Pyramid, as his owner.
In a filing on August 26, Avila’s lawyers said despite their repeated requests, “Chris Brown and Black Pyramid LLC are refusing to answer basic discovery” and that their “requests to confirm the depositions are being ignored by the defense counsel”.
Chris Brown, the controversial R&B singer, is facing a major legal battle as a $70 million lawsuit has been filed against him. The lawsuit stems from an incident in December 2020, where Brown’s dog, Hades, allegedly attacked and mauled a woman named Avila while she was working at his Los Angeles home.
The lawsuit claims that Hades, a 200+ lb. Caucasian Shepherd owned by Brown’s company, Black Pyramid, was aggressive and caused severe injuries to Avila. The victim is seeking $70 million in damages for the alleged attack.
Despite repeated requests for cooperation, Brown and his company have reportedly refused to provide basic information and have ignored requests for depositions. This lack of cooperation has led to frustration on the part of Avila’s legal team, who are pushing for a resolution as the trial date approaches.
The civil trial is set to begin on January 27, 2025, and is expected to be a high-profile case with significant implications for both parties involved. It remains to be seen how the legal proceedings will unfold and what the outcome will be for Chris Brown and the plaintiff, Avila.
