Chris Brownand his attorney,Mark Geragos, have maintained from the beginning that an accusation the singer pulled a gun onBaylee Curranin August while kicking her out of his Tarzana home was bogus.

Baylee Curran
As we reported at the time, Curran, a former Miss California Regional beauty pageant winner, called police on August 30 to made the claim.
Brown was arrested later that day.
TMZ reports that the case was supposed to be presented to prosecutors 2 weeks later, but the D.A. didn't think it would stand up in court.
Police were given an additional 2 weeks to come up with better evidence and failed to do so.
Authorities don't believe the 2 guns that were found inside a duffle bag Brown allegedly threw out of a window can be tied to him.
There's an outside chance law enforcement could pursue a misdemeanor assault prosecution with theL.A. City Attorney, but the case is weak which makes that scenario unlikely.
