*Jonathan Majors‘ trial date is set for September 6 to face charges of two counts of third-degree assault, aggravated harassment, and attempted assault for allegedly assaulting his ex-girlfriend back in March.

The attorney representing Majors says he’s the real victim because his “life, reputation, and career have been torn apart.”

According to Black Enterprise, the NYPD is now looking for the accuser, Majors’ ex-girlfriend Grace Jabari, who is allegedly out of the country.

Due to prosecutors’ failure to turn over evidence promptly, the domestic assault trial against the “Creed III” star has been pushed back until next month. 

“Many outlets have misreported what happened on Jonathan Majors’ August 3 court date, falsely claiming that I made a motion to delay the trial. That is untrue and incorrect,” Priya Chaudhry, Majors’ defense lawyer, said in a written statement provided to Newsweek. “The prosecution confessed to its unpreparedness, pushing the trial date to September 6. I presented no motions, did not ask to delay the trial, and there were no motions before the court.”

She continued: “Jonathan Majors has been waiting for 132 days to clear his name of these false allegations while the NYPD waits to arrest his accuser upon her New York return.”

In June, Majors filed a complaint against Jabbari, whom he alleged physically assaulted him on March 25, the night that he allegedly attacked her, and was arrested.

Chaudry claimed Majors later went to the police station “to present them with evidence of what really happened on that night,” and alleged Jabbari was “drunk and hysterical” during the incident.

Prosecutors did not press charges against Jabbari despite police having a reason to investigate her.

If found guilty, Majors could face up to a year in jail.

“Jonathan Majors is completely innocent and is probably the victim of an altercation with a woman he knows. We are quickly gathering and presenting evidence to the District Attorney with the expectation that all charges will be dropped imminently,” Chaudhry said in a March statement.
