Comedian Jim Carrey has been cleared of wrongdoing in connection with the death of his girlfriend who committed suicide in 2015.
After Cathriona White killed herself in September 2015, her family sued Carrey for wrongful death, claiming that the actor gave White three sexually transmitted diseases.
But the lawsuits, filed by White’s husband, Mark Burton, and mother, Brigid Sweetman, were dismissed Jan. 25, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
Burton and Sweetman also accused Carrey of acquiring the prescription drugs White used to commit suicide by using a fake name.
Carrey filed a countersuit in October, claiming that White had the STDs when they met and that she had falsified medical records.
“White’s intent in obtaining these records was clear she cooked the records, creating forgeries with altered information, phony tests and fictitious dates,” court documents obtained by the Daily News state.
It’s unclear why the lawsuits were dismissed.
Carrey’s attorney did not immediately return a request for comment.
