More from Variety<\/strong><\/p>\n\u201cJust as we had anticipated, the temporary protection order was not extended by the Court,\u201d the statement reads. \u201cThe accuser confirmed to the court that his decision to dismiss the matter was his alone, without any outside influence or pressure, and the accuser confirmed he was satisfied with his legal representation in the matter. The request came from the accuser asking to dismiss the case. This was never anything more than a troubled individual making false with absolutely nothing to substantiate them. We are glad that our client saw justice done and can now move forward with his life and his career. \u201d<\/p>\n
Martin appeared virtually in a Puerto Rico court to address the notation made by his 21-year-old nephew. Prior to this in early July, Martin had been served a restraining order by his nephew that cited abuse. Martin had denied the denial against him, with the singer’s lawyer offering a statement regarding the matter last Friday.<\/p>\n
\u201cRicky Martin has, of course, never been \u2014 and would never be \u2014 involved in any kind of sexual or romantic relationship with his nephew,\u201d Martin Singer, Martin’s attorney, said. \u201cThe idea is not only untrue, it is disgusting. We all hope that this man gets the help he so urgently needs. But, most of all, we look forward to this awful case being dismissed as soon as a judge gets to look at the facts.\u201d<\/p>\n
The singer’s brother also maintains that Martin’s nephew is \u201cstruggling with deep mental health challenges.\u201d<\/p>\n
