Woman drops Bieber lawsuit

A WOMAN who claimed that Justin Bieber was the father of her infant son has dropped a paternity suit against the popstar, US media said, amid reports that he was preparing to file a counter-suit.

Celebrity gossip site TMZ.com reported that plaintiff Mariah Yeater, 20, who last week quietly revoked her suit against the singer, also had been abandoned by her legal team.

Bieber, 17, earlier this month said he would take a DNA test to prove that he did not father Yeater’s son, and then would countersue once the results come back, according to reports.
