Mel Gibson’s ex drops domestic violence claim in custody dispute

Mel Gibson’s ex-girlfriend has told a family law judge she is dropping allegations the actor hit her during a fight last year.

A source says Oksana Grigorieva withdrew the allegations and lifted a restraining order Wednesday as a gesture she hoped would help settle the pair’s custody dispute over their young daughter.

The move doesn’t affect Gibson’s misdemeanour battery case.

Last March, he pleaded no contest to the charge without admitting guilt and was put on probation and ordered to undergo anger management counselling.

Grigorieva’s lawyer did not say whether she would continue her civil suit against Gibson.
