Pakistan, May 1 -- Chris Brown is trying to keep his past 2009 assault case involving Rihanna out of a new court case in Los Angeles.

The case is about a lawsuit filed by former housekeeper Maria Avila where she claims that she was seriously injured by a dog at Brown's home in Tarzana in December 2020. According to her claim, the attack caused major injuries to her face and arm, led to emergency surgery and left her with long term problems like vision loss and visible damage.

However, the trial is scheduled to begin on June 15.
