Chris Brown Allegedly Refuses Ex-Housekeeper’s Deposition In $71M Lawsuit Over Dog Attack

The housekeeper claims she had no idea that Brown had large "vicious, killer attack dogs” on his property

Chris Brown is allegedly dodging demands to appear for a deposition in a $71 million lawsuit filed by his former housekeeper over a dog attack.

Brown’s former housekeeper, Jane Doe, filed court documents serving Brown’s Black Pyramid company with a notice for a deposition that was scheduled on Nov. 9, Radar Online reported. However, days before the scheduled deposition, Brown’s lawyers objected to the notice on claims it was untimely served.

They also referenced a default on the case filed in 2022 that Brown responded to after the default was entered. Meanwhile, they claim, the default hasn’t been finalized, due to the former housekeeper refusing to work with the singer on the matter.

As a result, the “Run It” singer is refusing to appear for the videotaped deposition until the housekeeper responds to the default. The legal battle has been three years in the making, after the housekeeper filed the suit in July 2021 over an incident that occurred at Brown’s home in Tarzana, CA in December 2020.

The housekeeper claims she had no idea that Brown had large “vicious, killer attack dogs” on his property. While working at his home on the date in question, Doe said a Caucasian Orvchake/Caucasian Shepherd named Hades attacked her while she was taking out the trash.

Doe claims to have been “savagely” attacked by the dog, and parts of her face, arms, and body were ripped off. She claims she laid on the floor, bleeding, while attempting to protect her face and body during the attack

The housekeeper claims Brown came outside to instruct his security to remove the dog from the home. She followed up with a $71 million lawsuit for damages relating to her emotional and mental distress and medical expenses for her injuries.

Brown has denied Doe’s claims and instead says she provoked the attack by mistreating Hades. According to the singer, Doe “voluntarily teased, abused, and mistreated the dog and thereby provoked the attack.”

A judge has yet to rule on the legal matter.
