A lawsuit that an ex-girlfriend brought against Bears receiver Brandon Marshall, accusing him of abusing her, has been dismissed.

The Chicago Tribune reports that ex-girlfriend Rasheedah Watley, who filed the lawsuit in 2009 accusing Marshall of battery and false imprisonment in two separate incidents in June 2007 and March 2008, had her case dismissed in Georgia State Court on May 25.

Marshall and Watley had an on-and-off relationship that began when they were in junior high school and continued into his NFL career. In 2009 he was acquitted of battery charges in a case that began when Watley said Marshall hit her.

Marshall, who is now married to Michi Nogami-Campbell, has been accused of violence against women several times but has never been convicted.
