Not Guilty! Blac Chyna Asks To Dismiss Rob Kardashian’s Assault & Battery Lawsuit
Feb. 12 2020, Updated 9:00 p.m. ET
Blac Chyna is asking to have Rob Kardashian’s assault and battery lawsuit against her dismissed, RadarOnline.com can exclusively reveal.
Chyna's attorney, Lynne M. Ciani, filed new documents on Monday, February 10, regarding the explosive suit. Among other things, Chyna, 31, is now asking the court to get rid of the case.
Rob, 32, and sister Kylie Jenner initially filed the lawsuit against Chyna — whose real name is Angela White — on September 27, 2017, under four claims: assault, battery, conversion and declaratory relief. The cosmetics mogul, 22, dropped out of the suit last year because she didn't want to testify, according to Ciani. Rob, however, is still fighting to prove his ex’s alleged violence.
Dream’s famous dad claims Chyna physically attacked him on December 14, 2016, when they were still living in Kylie's home together. Chyna has denied all allegations, saying Rob is getting his powerful family to back up his lies.
As readers know, Chyna and Rob are embroiled in various legal battles. While both stars want primary custody of their 3-year-old daughter, Rob has pegged his ex as an unfit mother, claiming she is aggressive, overuses drugs and alcohol and acts inappropriately around Dream.
In the documents obtained by Radar, Rob details the alleged abuse he's endured at the hands of his baby mama.
He claims that on one occasion, Chyna got angry with him and started ripping up his shirt and filming the abuse to later brag about it on social media. Though at the time he thought it was strange but slightly comical, he says things only got worse from there.
Disturbing Details
In another fight, Rob claims Chyna pointed a gun to his head during an argument in the guest room, while his friend Eugene was there with him. In that moment, Rob says Chyna was “very intoxicated,” and told Eugene that if Rob ever messed up, she would “‘kill him.’”
In the documents, Rob claims Chyna once beat him with a 6-foot metal pole, strangled him with an iPhone cable until he couldn’t breathe and threw things at him when he fought back.
Rob alleges that Chyna also threatened to kill him another time after that, when he was FaceTiming his male friend in the kitchen and she jumped on his back because she assumed he was talking to another woman.
“I’m saying that I do feel like she was trying to kill me,” Rob says in the documents. “At that point, we’ve had so many instances of her hitting me and getting drunk and hitting me, and doing all that and doing that in her past, and the her doing that with police and when she was younger, and just so many instances that I definitely, leading up to that, I definitely felt like it’s just in her, and I definitely feared for my life.”
Denying Claims
Chyna’s legal team claims in the papers that there is “no evidence” Rob was physically harmed during their fights.
Rob was initially asking for $5,000 in property damage, $62,852 in security costs and $100,000 for pain, suffering and inconvenience. He also wanted $100,000 for emotional distress and $500,000 in punitive damages. Kylie was seeking $14,490 in property damages and $15,000 in punitive damages before dismissing her complaint. Rob has since dropped his claim for property damage and security costs.

Defense
“Chyna has filed a motion to dismiss the baseless assault and battery claims filed by her ex-fiancé Rob Kardashian in September 2017. Chyna already succeeded in getting Kylie Jenner to drop her bogus lawsuit against Chyna back in March 2018 after Kylie refused to sit for her deposition and refused to answer questions under oath. Now, Chyna has submitted evidence to the Court proving that she never committed assault and battery against Rob and that his case should be thrown out of court,” Ciani said in a statement to Radar.
Legal War Continues
“Chyna’s claim against Rob Kardashian for posting illegal Revenge Porn Photos of her will be tried before a jury on May 26, 2020. Chyna’s claims against Kris Jenner, Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian, and Kylie Jenner for illegally getting Season 2 of her #1 Hit Show on E! cancelled will be tried before a separate jury immediately after the conclusion of the Revenge Porn trial against Rob,” the attorney added.
It’s Not Over
The exes are scheduled to appear in court on April 23.
