Transcript

00:00 Tiger Woods' ex-girlfriend, Erika Herman,

00:02 has dropped her $30 million lawsuit.

00:04 We got all the details in today's "Us Daily."

00:06 Herman dismissed the case pending the result

00:08 of her latest appeal of a judge's order

00:10 to throw out a different lawsuit she filed

00:12 to nullify a 2017 non-disclosure agreement

00:15 she signed with Tiger.

00:16 Now that case remains pending.

00:18 Now, Herman first sued Woods' trust,

00:20 the title holder on his home, in October of 2022,

00:23 claiming that he violated the oral agreement

00:25 that stated she could live at his residence

00:27 for a certain duration of time

00:29 in exchange for performing valuable services.

00:32 In documents obtained by "Us Weekly" at the time,

00:34 Herman alleged that she was locked out of the home

00:36 by trickery when there were five years left

00:39 of the pair's oral agreement.

00:41 She claimed that 30 million represented

00:42 the reasonable rental value of the property

00:45 for the remaining five years of the alleged agreement.

00:48 Woods' trust, for their part, filed documents

00:50 to dismiss Herman's complaint in November of 2022.

00:53 The entity claimed that their response,

00:55 that per Herman's NDA with Woods,

00:57 she was required to resolve any and all disputes,

01:00 claims, or controversies with the golfer

01:02 through confidential arbitration.

01:04 While a hearing for Herman's lawsuit

01:06 regarding the oral tenancy

01:07 was initially scheduled for August,

01:09 a court document filed on June 29th

01:11 announced that it had been canceled

01:12 due to Herman's dismissal of the suit.

01:15 Now, days before the lawsuit's dismissal,

01:17 she filed her second appeal after the case

01:19 seeking to lift her NDA with Woods

01:21 on the grounds that the athlete harassed her

01:24 was thrown out.

01:25 Woods, for his part, called Herman a jilted ex-girlfriend

01:29 who wants to publicly litigate specious claims in court

01:32 rather than honor her commitment to arbitrate disputes

01:34 in a confidential arbitration proceeding.

01:36 Now, the former couple dated for five years

01:39 before their messy split in 2022.

01:41 A source exclusively told us in March

01:43 that Woods and Herman experienced a breakdown

01:45 in their relationship and clashed over time and money,

01:48 which ultimately led to their breakup.
