Meanwhile, a woman who claims Brown raped her nearly 20 years ago said Tuesday she will continue her lawsuit.
Jacque Hollander has asked the U.S. Supreme Court to hear her sexual harassment suit, which a lower court ruled last year she had waited too long to file.
A Supreme Court decision on whether to hear the case is pending.
She argues that the two-year statute of limitations in such cases does not provide equal protection to women.
"This has been a long road that ended tragically Christmas morning," Hollander said in a phone interview with the Associated Press.
"As a rape victim, I will never get to face him in court, and it hurts," she said. "But we are moving forward. We filed against his organization, as well as him. So now his organization stands in front of him."
In her lawsuit, Hollander said Brown raped her at gunpoint in 1988 while she was his publicist. She seeks $106 million in damages.
A federal appeals court tossed out Hollander's lawsuit in August.
"There was nothing to it 20 years ago and nothing to it 20 years later," Dallas said.Comment

His issues were that he was wanted dead by many hate mongers in the south where he lived. Go back and read about the civil right struggle and James Brown. He made waves and was resented for it by powerful people.
The rest is greedy people trying to get a piece of the pie.
Not knowing why James Brown is glorified is a negative reflection of your knowledge of America's history.Done.Comment

Thats what I was thinking... he's a piece of shit. If you look at his timeline his been arrested numerous times for beating women and assaults.
Not to mention this old one,
http://www.goofball.com/mugshots/james_brown
LOCATION: Aiken County, South Carolina and Augusta, Georgia
ARREST: September 24, 1988
CHARGE: Simple assault; carrying a pistol without a license; carrying a deadly weapon at a public gathering; two counts of assault with intent to kill; seven misdemeanor charges.
The people attending an afternoon insurance seminar, were surprised to find James Brown, the "Godfather of Soul", walk in wearing a cowboy hat and brandishing a pistol and a shotgun. "Who used my restroom?" demanded the Hardest-Working man in Show Business, who kept a business office in the building.
Mr. Brown instructed two women to lock the toilet's door and give him the key. He then left the building, got into his late-model red and white pickup truck and sped off. And sped is the right word. Brown was practically flying. The truck was spotted by a Richmond County police officer, who pursued Mr. Brown onto eastbound interstate 20. As the pickup truck crossed into South Carolina, the chase was picked up by officers from North Augusta, South Carolina.
Officers tried to stop Mr. Brown by shooting out the tires of his truck. Even with the vehicle semi-disabled, Mr. Brown drove on the rims through a blockade, turned around, and headed back to Georgia. With several police cars hot on his tail, Mr. Brown drove off the road, where his rims got stuck in the dirt, and he was finally apprehended. The singer was no stranger to the law. Previous charges include possession of the drug PCP, resisting arrest, possession of an unlicensed handgun, and attempted murder (of his wife, Adrienne Brown). Mrs. Brown refused to testify against her husband, and those charges were dropped.
At Mr. Brown's trial, Aiken County Judge Hubert E. Long listened to long hours of testimony from friends, family, and fans of James Brown and his music. Court Bailiff George Brown pleaded with the judge, "Give him a chance, Your Honor." The defendant himself told the judge that "James Brown is just a man who wants to do right." Admitting that "the responsibility of passing judgment is not an easy one," Judge Long told the court that he had to consider the community as well as Mr. Brown, then sentenced the singer to six years in the penitentiary, five years of probation with mandatory first-year drug testing, and a $6,000 fine. After two years in prison, James Brown was granted parole by the South Carolina Parole Board.Comment

He didn't think he'd be treated fairly when the cops arrived and he feared for his life because he had been threaten many times before over his involvement in the civil right struggle.
He truly believed that one day he would be murdered and most likey by the police. Once the cops shot at his vehicle he had only his belief to make decisions with.Done.Comment
