Chris Brown Ordered to Pay Housekeeper $13 Million After Dog Attack
The jury also awarded damages to Maria Avila’s sister and husband after finding negligence in the 2020 attack.
- On Tuesday, a Los Angeles jury found Chris Brown liable for nearly $13 million in damages regarding a 2020 incident where his dog mauled housekeeper Maria Avila at his Tarzana, California home.
- The lawsuit stemmed from a 2020 incident where Brown failed to properly restrain Hades, a 200-pound Caucasian shepherd, while Avila emptied trash; Brown accepted partial liability for negligence before the two-week trial began.
- Testimony indicated the attack caused "large chunks of her skin" to be ripped off, and Brown avoided calling 911 himself, fearing a "media circus" if his voice were heard on the call.
- Awards included $885,000 for Patricia Avila, Maria's sister, and $50,000 for Oscar Olivo, with Brown and Black Pyramid LLC held responsible for the total damages.
- Coming just four days after Brown began his co-headlining tour with Usher, the judgment marks a significant legal setback for the singer amid his ongoing high-profile legal disputes.
