A lawsuit filed in Texas in opposition to Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott by a lady accusing him of sexual assault has been moved to Collin County from Dallas County, in response to the plaintiff’s legal professional, Yoel Zehaie.
Final week, the swimsuit was dropped in Dallas County after Zehaie submitted a request for a “non-suit with out prejudice,” which allowed the accuser to refile the swimsuit later. In an electronic mail, Zehaie mentioned the transfer to Collin County was made “for functions of comfort,” since Prescott’s preliminary swimsuit looking for damages was introduced in that county.

In March, Prescott filed a swimsuit looking for financial aid in extra of $1 million after receiving a letter in January from attorneys Bethel and Yoel Zehaie on behalf of the lady accusing Prescott of sexually assaulting her in February 2017, in response to the swimsuit. The letter said, “Regardless of the tragic occasions, she is keen to forego pursuing legal fees, together with disclosing this data to the general public, in trade for compensating her for the psychological anguish she has suffered. [The woman’s] damages are valued on the sum of $100,000,000.00.”
In his swimsuit, Prescott dedicated to donate any such aid to the Joyful Coronary heart Basis or one other “like-minded group.”
The accuser then filed a civil grievance and a police report over the alleged incident that occurred in 2017. In March, Prescott’s legal professional, Levi McCathern, referred to as it a “fully fabricated story,” and Prescott “has by no means engaged in any nonconsensual, sexual conduct with anybody.”
Dallas Police mentioned this week an investigation remains to be lively. Prosper (Texas) Police are investigating Prescott’s extortion claims in opposition to the accuser.
