Nearly one year after he was arrested on assault, strangulation and harassment charges, Jonathan Majors legal issues remain in play. The embattled actor stood trial for assault near the end of 2023, and the case ended with Majors being found guilty of harassment and third-degree reckless assault. At present, the actor is awaiting his sentencing hearing, which is set to happen in a little less than a month. In the interim, Majors is now facing yet another legal challenge, as his ex-girlfriend – who was at the center of his trial – is now suing him.
Grace Jabbari, who was in a relationship with the former Marvel actor for two years, is reportedly suing her ex over acts he allegedly committed while they were involved. Rolling Stone obtained documents from the filing, which show that Jabbari is filing suit over assault and battery, defamation and malicious prosecution. Upon the filing, Jabbari’s attorney shared a statement with the news outlet. Brittany Henderson made note of her client’s “bravery” and seemingly expressed confidence in their case being successful:
It takes true bravery to hold someone with this level of power and acclaim accountable. Bravery that Grace Jabbari has demonstrated at every stage of the legal process. We strongly believe that through this action, truth and transparency will bring Grace the justice that she deserves.
Jonathan Majors’ team has yet to issue a formal response to Grace Jabbari’s lawsuit, as of this writing. He’s currently set to return to court for his sentencing hearing on April 8.
