The ongoing civil legal battle involving NFL wide receiver Stefon Diggs has entered another chapter, as both sides continue to spar over evidence and discovery in federal court.
The latest dispute centers on travel records tied to an alleged trip to Washington, D.C. Christopher Blake Griffith, the man accusing Diggs of sexual assault, argues that Diggs and his legal team are requesting documents they should already have access to through members of Diggs’ own staff. Griffith is asking the court to deny the request, calling it unnecessary and duplicative.
How the Case Began
The lawsuit stems from allegations made by Christopher Blake Griffith, who claims Diggs drugged and sexually assaulted him during a 2023 encounter. Griffith also alleges he was later assaulted and robbed by individuals connected to Diggs.
Diggs has consistently denied all allegations. In late 2025, he filed a defamation lawsuit against Griffith, claiming the accusations are false and have damaged both his personal reputation and NFL career. Griffith later countersued, maintaining that his allegations are truthful.
Latest Court Dispute
The newest court filings focus on discovery—the legal process in which both sides exchange evidence before trial.
According to Griffith’s attorneys, they have already produced more than 100 pages of text messages, Instagram conversations, and other communications exchanged with Diggs. They argue Diggs’ latest request for additional travel documents related to the Washington, D.C., trip is unnecessary because members of Diggs’ own team would already possess those records.
The dispute comes after previous disagreements over what evidence each side must provide. Earlier this year, a federal judge ordered Diggs to disclose additional information regarding the nature of his relationship with Griffith as the case proceeds.
Separate Lawsuit Recently Settled
While the case against Stefon Diggs remains active, Griffith recently reached a settlement in a separate $10 million lawsuit involving Diggs’ brother, Darez Diggs. The settlement resolved only that case and does not affect the pending litigation against Stefon Diggs. The terms of the agreement were not disclosed.
What’s Next?
No trial date has been announced. For now, both sides remain engaged in discovery, with additional motions and evidence disputes expected before the case moves closer to trial.
Diggs continues to deny the allegations, while Griffith maintains his claims. As with any ongoing civil litigation, the allegations remain unproven unless established in court or resolved through settlement.
