Cosby has decided not to pursue the lawsuit...
According to reports Bill Cosby's lawyers withdrew the lawsuit this week just ten days after being given the green light to sue.
If he'd won Andrea could have been forced to return her cash settlement.
Andrea Contrand accused Bill Cosby of drugging and sexually assaulting her inside his Philadelphia brownstone while she worked at Temple University in 2004.
No reason was given for the withdrawal.
Cosby is currently facing trial for the assault after the case was reopened by prosecutors [click here if you missed that].
