Chris Brown Hit-And-Run Victim Wants Charges Dropped

The victim in Chris Brown's ongoing Hit-And-Run case has expressed no desire to prosecute, and Brown's lawyers have filed to have the charges dropped.

Chris Brown was in a fender bender last month, in which he rear-ended a Mercedes in L.A. Despite Brown's claims that he did no damage to the vehicle, and properly exchanged information with the driver, the case escalated to a Hit-and-run charge.

Brown went on a twitter rant in his defense, insisting that his lawyer's would see to it that the charges were dropped, and it seems that things are going his way. Olga Gure-Kovalenko, the driver of the other car, has now expressed no desire to have Chris prosecuted, and the singer's lawyers have thus filed for the charges to be dropped.

While things are looking good for Brown, there are still a few loose ends in the case. At this point, the L.A. City Attorney has not yet decided to drop the case, reportedly asking for time to think it over.

Chris could also still be charged for driving without a valid California license, though his lawyers argue that the singer is still a Virginia resident, and his Virginia license is thus valid.

There is also the small possibility that any of the events could qualify as a probation violation, which could apparently land Brown in jail for up to four years.
