Lawsuits filed against Jim Carrey in ex-girlfriend Cathriona White’s death have reportedly been dismissed.
The suits, filed by White’s husband, Mark Burton, and mother, Brigid Sweetman, were dropped on Jan. 25, the comedian’s representative told the Hollywood Reporter.
White committed suicide in September 2015 and her family members sued Carrey for wrongful death, claiming that the actor gave three sexually transmitted diseases to White before she took her own life.
Burton and Sweetman also accused him of using a fake name to acquire the prescription drugs she used to commit suicide.
Carrey filed a countersuit in October, claiming that White had the STDs when they met and that she had falsified medical records to the contrary.
"White's intent in obtaining these records was clear — she cooked the records, creating forgeries with altered information, phony tests and fictitious dates," court documents obtained by the Daily News state.
It’s unclear why the lawsuits were dismissed. Carrey’s attorney did not immediately return a request for comment.
