(NEW YORK) – Actor Jonathan Majors and his ex-girlfriend Grace Jabbari have agreed to settle her civil claims that followed his felony assault conviction in New York, according to a court filing.

Majors and Jabbari stipulated to the dismissal of her defamation and assault lawsuit she brought against him in March, the filing said. No reason was given.

Jabbari sued Majors around the same time he was sentenced to domestic violence intervention classes in April. She claimed he physically abused her and then defamed her by denying the abuse in an interview with ABC News.

Majors was found guilty of one felony count of third-degree assault and one count of second-degree harassment, but was acquitted of two other counts of aggravated assault and harassment in a split verdict.

Since the verdict, Majors has been dropped from management and PR firms. Additionally, he was cut from upcoming Marvel movies and his role as Kang in “Avengers: Kang Dynasty.”

As part of his sentence, Majors was ordered to complete a 52-week batterer’s personal intervention program in Los Angeles, continue mental health counseling and stay away from Jabbari.
