Justin Bieber baby claim lawsuit dropped
November 16th, 2011
The woman who claimed teen singer Justin Bieber fathered a baby with her has dropped her paternity lawsuit, a source close to the case said on Wednesday.
Mariah Yeater, 20, of southern California, had claimed in her lawsuit that she had sex backstage with the 17-year-old Canadian singer last year and that he was the father of a baby she gave birth to in July. She was demanding child support.
Bieber has repeatedly denied the allegation and had offered to take a paternity test.
Yeater has now dropped her lawsuit, the source told Reuters.
Bieber's camp on Wednesday declined comment on the reports, which first appeared on celebrity website TMZ.com.
