Terrence Howard’s ex-wife has filed legal documents seeking to drop her assault lawsuit against the actor. Michelle Ghent sought to dismiss the lawsuit without prejudice giving her the option to refile it in the future.

The lawsuit filed in July 2015 alleged that Howard, 47, assaulted Ghent during a 2013 vacation in Costa Rica.

Legal maneuver: Terrence Howard, shown last September in Los Angeles, was named as a defendant in an assault lawsuit that his ex-wife has moved to dismiss.

A source told TMZ that no settlement was reached and Howard was not paying Ghent to end the lawsuit.
Lawyers’ fees were mounting on both sides and the source said Ghent decided to leave the legal fight, according to TMZ.

An attorney for Ghent however said she was moving to dismiss the case because she didn’t want Howard’s children who were on the vacation to testify as witnesses and it wasn’t about the money. Howard and Ghent divorced in 2012. The actor and his wife Miranda Pak in August welcomed their second son together Hero.
