Drake and Future are off the hook for now after being dismissed from a $25 million rape lawsuit.

According to court documents obtained by The Blast, the rappers (real names Aubrey Drake Graham and Nayvadius DeMun Wilburn, respectively) were dismissed without prejudice from the suit, while several other defendants still remain.

The woman, who only identified herself as Jane Doe, claims she was attacked and raped by a man working security at a Drake/Future concert on August 14, 2016 at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee.

The alleged assailant, later identified as Leavy Johnson, has since been arrested and charged with rape, according to The Tennessean. He is currently awaiting trial.

Doe claimed Johnson had outstanding warrants for assault at the time of the alleged rape and claims the arena, the touring companies, the company that provided the security and the rappers all should have known that employing Johnson would "pose an unreasonable risk to others."

The case remains ongoing.
