Ye’s long-running legal fight with former assistant Lauren Pisciotta is over in Los Angeles, ending more than two years of accusations, denials and increasingly explosive court filings. On Wednesday, Pisciotta asked Los Angeles County Superior Court to dismiss the entire case with prejudice and filed a notice of settlement. Her attorney said the matter had been resolved, but the financial terms remain undisclosed.
Settlement Closes Two-Year Los Angeles Court Fight
Documents reported by The Los Angeles Times show that Pisciotta’s legal team filed the dismissal request and settlement notice in Los Angeles County Superior Court. Attorney Arick Fudali told the paper, “The matter has been resolved,” while a representative for Ye did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The dismissal was requested with prejudice, which makes the resolution final as to the claims in this case. Guidance from California Courts says that a case dismissed with prejudice cannot be filed again against the same defendant over the same issues, meaning this courtroom fight is effectively finished.
Claims Expanded After 2024 Filing
Pisciotta initially sued Ye in June 2024, saying she worked for him from July 2021 through October 2022. According to MyNewsLA, the original complaint alleged wrongful termination and sexual harassment, along with claims that she had been promised a $4 million salary.
The case later grew considerably. Complex reported that a 2025 amended complaint added allegations including sexual assault, battery and sex trafficking, while also accusing Ye of other misconduct during and after Pisciotta’s employment.
Ye’s representatives have denied Pisciotta’s allegations. At the time of the initial lawsuit, his side characterized the claims as baseless and accused her of coercion, blackmail and extortion, according to the Los Angeles Times.
No Public Settlement Amount
Neither side has publicly disclosed how the dispute was resolved or whether any payment changed hands. The settlement ends the civil lawsuit without a trial verdict on the allegations, leaving the Los Angeles court docket with a final dismissal rather than a public ruling on the competing accounts.
