  • Tarek El Moussa, a 43-year-old HGTV star, had his misdemeanor battery case dismissed on August 5 in Las Vegas following an altercation at The Palazzo.

  • During the incident, El Moussa kneed the man to the floor and allegedly struck him three times in the head, leaving the victim with visible facial injuries.
  • Tarek's lawyers expressed their satisfaction with the full dismissal of the case following his completion of anger management sessions and maintaining a clean record.
  • The dismissal with prejudice means charges cannot be refiled, closing the case and allowing El Moussa to move forward following the incident on his family trip.
