TMZ reports Chris Brown can officially close the chapter on two lawsuits that have been lingering over his head, the Washington DC case and the Frank Ocean suit.  Breezy was able to settle the lawsuit involving a photobombing fan outside a D.C. hotel.  The fan accused the singer of punching him in the face, but Breezy’s bodyguard said it never happened admitting he was the one who clocked the dude.  At the end of the day both Chris and his bodyguard plead guilty to simple assault to avoid jail time.  Now the singer can put the drama behind him.

Closing the door on another long-standing lawsuit, Breezy can breathe a sigh of relief over the Frank Ocean assault case.   Frank Ocean's cousin, Sha'Keir Duarte, filed suit against Chris Brown last year after a parking lot fight, claiming he suffered $3 million worth of pain and suffering.   AllHipHop reports the brawl between the two singer’s camps broke out January last year, when Chris and his crew were approached by Frank and his entourage and informed they had parked in the wrong spot.  Though he was very much a part of the scuffle Duarte, claims Breezy instigated his beating by a bodyguard, in which he suffered permanent injury.

Listen to Tha Wire now and find out how much it cost Chris to settle out of both lawsuits and find out what kinda time in jail Katt and Suge face if they get convicted for burglary. Get the scoop now with Tha Wire.
