In a shocking turn of events, Erica Herman has dropped her $30 million lawsuit against her ex-boyfriend, Tiger Woods. According to court documents obtained by The New York Post, the decision stemmed from Erica’s ongoing appeal regarding her NDA case against Woods. “The Plaintiff, Erica Herman, by and through her undersigned counsel, hereby dismisses without prejudice her complaint, filed on October 26, 2022, pending resolution of the appeal in Herman v Woods and determination of whether her claims are subject to arbitration,” the documents said
While the $30 million lawsuit has officially been dropped, the NDA battle between Erica and Woods shows no signs of slowing down. Back in May, Florida Circuit Judge Elizabeth Metzger rejected the businesswoman’s request to throw out her NDA with Woods, which she signed in 2017. While Erica made sexual harassment claims in her filing, the judge said she failed to provide “factual specificity of any claim relating to sexual assault or sexual harassment,” per Golf Channel. After Metzger denied an appeal from Erica on June 2, the former restaurant manager filed an additional appeal on June 17 with the Fourth District Court of Appeal in Florida, per USA Today. As of this writing, the case is still pending.
