Judge Dismisses Prince Yahshua Defamation Case Against Hussie

LOS ANGELES—A Los Angeles County Superior Court judge on Thursday dismissed performer Prince Yahshua's lawsuit against talent agency Hussie Models, filed at the end of March, accusing the agency of defamation and intentional interference with prospective economic advantage leveled at the veteran performer. Court documents show that Judge Holly J. Fujie, in a Thursday Non-Appearance Case Review, dismissed the complaint without prejudice due to Yahshua's attorney neglecting to file a declaration by July 8 as to why the case should not be dismissed, as the court had instructed. Yahshua's complaint, originally filed March 30, came after rumors had circulated among the adult industry community that he had falsified one of his then-recent performer STI screening tests. The suit alleged that Hussie Models and owner Riley Reynolds had "engaged in a laundry list of lies and misrepresentations" about Yahshua, "essentially telling entire adult industry that Plaintiff is a forger (falsified documents), engaged in bribery (paid cash for an outcome) and has a loathsome disease (tested positive for an illness)."  "I am happy to hear that this case has been dismissed, this is a ruling that I considered inevitable based on the fact that the allegations were baseless," Reynolds told AVN. "Part of me does wish the case proceeded to trial where I could have defended myself and proved myself innocent," he added. "

It is unfortunate that baseless allegations resulted in nothing more than lawyers fees but I am happy with the outcome."
