“In addition to dropping his lawsuit claiming over $750K in damages, Rob Kardashian must now pay for all of Chyna’s litigation costs," she says. "Chyna is an excellent role model for women who want to stand up to former fiancés, or spouses, or boyfriends who try to bully, intimidate, and denigrate their exes. It is time for Chyna’s courageous and inspirational stand against Rob Kardashian, her powerful ex-fiancé, to be part of the public discourse."

In another statement released to RadarOnline.com, Ciani trashed Rob for dropping the suit days before trial.

"This entire time, Chyna has had to live through hell with Rob's horrific and false accusations hanging over her head. Chyna was finally about to have her day in court at a February 23 jury trial in Los Angeles Superior Court where she was prepared to prove with evidence that Rob's claim that she physically attacked and assaulted him was a malicious lie.Instead, Rob dropped his case on the eve of trial, not because he suddenly wanted to drop the case "for the sake of his daughter", but because he knew his assault and battery accusations against Chyna were false," she said.

Chyna is still suing Rob and the Kardashian/Jenner family in a separate lawsuit. In that suit, Chyna accuses them of spreading lies about her abusing her ex which led to E! execs canceling her show and costing her millions.
