The bus driver who accused Matthew Fox of punching her has dropped her case.
Heather Bormann had accused the Lost star of punching her after he drunkenly tried to get onto her vehicle and demanded she drove him to his hotel in Cleveland, Ohio, last year. However, she has now ended her lawsuit, with the actor not having to pay any settlement. Her lawyer, J. Norman Stark, added to website TMZ he had also dropped Bormann as a client recently because she was difficult to deal with.
"Suddenly and without provocation, Fox attacked plaintiff with his fists, delivering sudden and severe blows to her right breast, groin, arm and legs, inflicting severe, disabling injury and pain to plaintiff," Heather's original lawsuit had claimed.
Matthew - who is married to Margherita Ronchi, with whom he has two children, daughter Kyle and son Byron - has also dropped his countersuit against Heather, which he had filed claiming defamation.
The court dismissal comes in the same week as Matthew was accused by former Lost co-star Dominic Monaghan of "beating women."

The actor made the accusation about his co-star on the cancelled television series after a fan of the two encouraged Dominic to get Matthew to join Twitter.
When the follower asked him to get the screen star to create an account, he replied, "He beats women. No thanks."
He elaborated when the woman told joked, "WHAT ABOUT ALL THOSE GOOD TIMES YOU HAD TOGETHER?!"
"How do you know we ever did? you don't know either of us. he beats women.not isolated incidents. often. not interested," he responded.
Sources told TMZ.com that the pair have not spoken for years, and they never had any sort of argument so it's baffling to Matthew as to why Dominic would launch the online rant.
