The Game denied new trial in sexual assault case: Reports

The Game reportedly failed to attend court hearings on a consistent basis, leading the judge to deny a new trial after his accuser was previously awarded a $7.1 mn by a jury.

In a legal battle that has been going on for three years, Compton-based rapper The Game has been denied a new trial in his sexual assault case, Court House News reports. 

In 2016, a judge ruled that The Game was liable for sexually assaulting 'She Got Game' contestant Priscilla Rainey. 'She Got Game' was a show that aired on VH1 whose purported aim was to find The Game (real name Jayceon Taylor) a girlfriend. But things turned sour for the rapper after one contestant taking the Grammy-nominated rapper to court for a sexual assault accusation. Priscilla Rainey is the woman claiming that Game touched her inappropriately in a sports bar outside of Chicago and, according to Courthouse News, the 'Hate It or Love It' hit-maker failed to show up to court so many times that he will not be granted a new trial after requesting one.
