Takeoff’s estate has resolved a long-running lawsuit that accused the late Migos rapper of raping a woman at a house party in 2020.
A trial had been scheduled to begin on 1 December. On 12 November, a court filing obtained by Billboard revealed that the lawyers in the case were planning to file a dismissal.
The parties shared in a joint statement, “The matter is resolved.”
No further details were provided.
A woman identified only as Jane Doe alleged that Takeoff, real name Kirsnick Khari Ball, raped her in a bedroom during a June 2020 house party in Los Angeles.
Doe originally sued Takeoff in August 2020. She sought financial damages for a slew of civil claims including sexual battery, assault and infliction of emotional distress.
The rapper’s estate, managed by his mother, took over the case after he was shot and killed at a Houston bowling alley in November 2022.
Takeoff’s estate vehemently denied the allegations, claiming the woman fabricated the story to extort money.
Hip hop trio Migos was formed by Quavo, TakeOff and Offset in 2008. Together, they achieved global success with hits including Versace, and Bad and Boujee. The group splintered following the murder of TakeOff.
Takeoff’s alleged shooter, Patrick Xavier Clark, is scheduled to go to trial in April 2027.
