A judge has dismissed a lawsuit claiming sexual assault against Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott.

Collin County Judge Angela Tucker's ruling Wednesday comes on the heels of Dallas police announcing in May that they had found "insufficient evidence" to support a criminal case against Prescott and would not pursue charges.

The case stemmed from an alleged incident that occurred in 2017 in which a woman said Prescott assaulted her in the back of an SUV in a strip club parking lot.

Dak's countersuit for extortion against the woman and her lawyer remain active and are scheduled for a hearing on September. 13, 2024.

Maybe now Jerry has the green light to extend him.

From a strictly legal standpoint, what does insufficient evidence for a criminal case have to do with a lawsuit?
The evidentiary bar is not the same and is much lower for a lawsuit.

Unless the article was merely pointing out the timing, not necessarily that they were related.

Article seemed fairly clear a criminal investigation determined there wasn’t evidence. Now a civil trial judge has come to the same conclusion. Even civil cases have rules of evidence. Civil liability trials don’t exist to act as a get rich quick scheme!

I did skim a little too quickly what was posted here and did not notice the earlier date was in May. So, not all that recent.

Unfortunately, the article doesn't mention much at all about what the judge actually thought. No specific information on that at all really.
