Legal tangles of Chris Brown

American singer, songwriter, actor, and dancer Chris Brown was accused of stalking and threatening his ex-girlfriend American actress and model Karrueche Tran and her new boyfriend J. Ryan LaCour.

They have asked for restraining orders against Chris Brown. Both Tran and LaCour had received temporary restraining orders against the R&B singer in February 2017 but they have now applied for permanent restraining orders against him.

Karrueche Tran was unable to attend the court hearings herself due to prior work commitments. She was, however, ready for participation on the phone.

Hence her lawyers notified the court 7 days in advance of it. During the hearing, Chris Brown’s lawyers tried to dismiss her case against Chris Brown by arguing that she should have provided notification about her absence 12 days and not just 7 days in advance. His attorneys were confident that they could use Tran’s late notification and absence as technical grounds for dismissing the case in court.

They might have been right but what they did not realize was that it was a joint hearing of Karrueche and LaCour’s petition and LaCour was on the court ready to testify against the singer.

The Judge pointed out that even Chris Brown was not present in the court, while the other petitioner namely LaCour was very much there in the court. Chris Brown’s lawyer tried to defend by saying that their side was not served the second notice of the petition of LaCour.

But the court was able to show him the proof that he was properly served the two restraining orders of Tran and LaCour. The lawyers were in a fix since they had not prepared for the second case.

Chris Brown accused them of making a mockery of the court during the hearing. Though their request for a continuance was granted, they were warned that Chris Brown should be personally present for the next court hearing which was due on 15^th June.

In this hearing, both sides will have to present their pieces of evidence on the allegations. Mark Geragos, Brown’s main lawyer, was not present at this hearing, and in his absence, a female lawyer represented him instead.

In the last hearing, Tran’s attorney had chided Geragos for propagating that Tran was making up the case of domestic violence for her own publicity.

Chris Brown’s love life

Chris Brown befriended Barbadian singer, songwriter, and actress Rihanna. He started dating her in 2008, but these relations were probably violent. In 2009, someone made a domestic violence case against him.

After this relationship ended, Chris started dating Girlicious band group member Natalie Mejia. But it was a brief romantic involvement. In 2011, he started a romantic relationship with model and actress Karrueche Tran.

However, in 2012, he seemed to be again closer to Rihanna. In October 2012, Chris Brown said that he had ended his relationship with Tran since he did not mean to hurt her due to his friendship with Rihanna.

Chris Brown, however, had a feeling that he loved both; Rihanna as well as Tran. This he made known to the world via a video. In January 2013, he again started dating Rihanna.

Rihanna also seemed to be happy with this relationship with her old boyfriend who she claimed had changed completely. However, she stressed that she would break the relationship if she notices any of his past violent behavior toward her.

By May 2013, they had again split. In March 2015, Chris Brown declared that he is the father of a cute baby whom he named Royalty.

The mother was Nia Guzman, a nursing student, and an aspiring model. In May 2016, Chris Brown gained joint custody of Royalty.

However, his tryst with the law does not seem to be over yet. In February, he was ordered to stay away from Tran and now new cases for permanent restraining orders have been filed in court by Tran and her boyfriend J.Ryan LaCour against Chris Brown. These cases are presently sub judice.

His early life

Chris Brown has the public image of a young, wild, and bad boy. The roots of his abusive behavior could well be in his early childhood days. Chris Brown was born to Clinton Brown and Joyce Hawkins.

He has an elder sister who works in the bank. Chris Brown’s mother was a daycare center director while his father worked as a corrections officer at a local jail.

His upbringing was in a small town with not more than 2000 people. Brown’s parents were divorced and his mother had a boyfriend. His stepfather was quite abusive towards his mother and subjected her to domestic violence.

Recalling those days, Chris Brown had once said:

“He made me terrified all the time… I remember one night he made [my mother’s] nose bleed, I was crying and thinking, ‘I’m just gonna go crazy on him one day…’ I hate him to this day,”

Chris has the frustration and anger of his childhood in him. He had seen abusive relationships in his childhood and the same he continues to harbor in his new relations. I hope Chris is able to move past his violent past and pursue his career and adorable little Royalty!

Karrueche Tran was unable to attend the court hearings herself due to prior work commitments.
