In December, the former Marvel star was found guilty of reckless assault and harassment after an incident with his ex-girlfriend

Despite logging his red carpet appearance just three days at the NAACP Image Awards—his first since being convicted of misdemeanor reckless assault and harassment—things are going from bad to worse for Jonathan Majors. Not only has he been denounced by a slew of former relations and coworkers and fired from multiple projects—including, notably, his major role in the Marvel franchise—but he’s now facing yet another lawsuit; this one directly from his ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari.
In a suit filed in New York’s federal court Tuesday (via The Hollywood Reporter), Jabbari is suing Majors for battery, assault, intentional infliction of emotional distress, malicious prosecution and defamation. While an incident where Majors allegedly abused Jabbari while they were riding in a car together was the impetus for the actor’s trial in the first place, those initial charges were brought by the state of New York rather than Jabbari herself.
In her suit, Jabbari, who Majors name-dropped multiple times in a teary, post-conviction interview with Good Morning America, alleges (via The Daily Beast) that “Majors has called her a liar at every turn and very specifically claimed that he has never put his hands on a woman, with the goal of convincing the world that Grace is not a victim of domestic abuse but instead a crazy liar who should be treated as such.”
“Now that Majors can no longer physically abuse Grace, he has resorted to very publicly abusing her reputation,” the suit continues (via THR). “Put bluntly, Majors’ defense to Grace’s descriptions of the numerous acts of violence Majors perpetrated against her was to brazenly defame her and label her a liar on all claims.”
Majors still awaits sentencing for the previous case, for which he faces up to a year in prison. He was scheduled for sentencing on February 6, but the date was delayed until April 8 after his legal team filed a motion to set aside the verdict.

That dumb little coffee mug that reminds him to be thankful for what he has is really getting a goddamn workout.
At least you found a different photo without him making that pouty face.
This is how he poses now after the conviction (this pic is clearly from the naacp awards that happened the other day). A week or two ago he was on the red carpet with his new girlfriend grinning ear to ear. His PR team must have told him to stop making that pouty face.
Now they tell him!
Where was this crackerjack team a couple of years ago?

Blue steel!
Hey he has a new expression.
Rest in Power old expression

That’s one way to describe the difference between a criminal and civil trial.
It was a criminal trial. He’s looking at jail time for the conviction. A victim does not have to press charges for a person to be tried for domestic assault, since so many later recant under duress from their partners.
I believe you are stating exactly the same thing Corwin Haught said. Not sure why you feel the need to explain something empahtically to a poster who seems to already know that the first trial was a criminal trial.
yes but I think this one is a civil trial?
