The woman who sued Nelly over an alleged sexual assault is asking a court to throw out his defamation countersuit, according to documents obtained by The Blast. Nelly has denied the allegation, and prosecutors declined to file criminal charges against him.
In the filing, Monique says she did not defame Nelly because she has a right to free speech and says what she said about the incident was true. She also argues that Nelly and his legal team, who have maintained she lied, are the ones damaging her name.
According to The Blast, Monique wants the countersuit dismissed while her own lawsuit moves forward.
The filing also mentions Nelly’s girlfriend, Shantel Jackson, claiming she helped back up his alibi. Those are claims made in a court document by one side of the dispute. Baller Alert did not have a response from Shantel or Nelly’s team to this filing at the time of publication.
