DaBaby Settles Bowling Alley Legal For Slapping DaniLeigh’s Brother Around

June 08, 2026

DaBaby settles his four-year legal battle over the 2022 bowling alley brawl with DaniLeigh’s brother Brandon Curiel at Corbin Bowl in Los Angeles.

DaBaby just closed the book on a four-year legal battle stemming from a February 2022 bowling alley altercation that spiraled into years of courtroom drama.

Court documents last week show the settlement’s been finalized, with the case heading toward dismissal within 45 days.

The whole situation started when tensions between the rapper and Brandon Curiel, the brother of his ex DaniLeigh, boiled over at Corbin Bowl in Los Angeles.

The backstory here matters because it wasn’t random.

DaBaby and DaniLeigh had an on-and-off relationship that DaniLeigh herself described as toxic in interviews.

When they split in early 2022, Brandon made his feelings about the rapper crystal clear, publicly criticizing him and exchanging words before they ever stepped foot in that bowling alley. The bad blood was already there, simmering beneath the surface.

When they finally crossed paths at the lanes, things escalated fast.

Brandon claimed that DaBaby approached him and said, “I just want to slap you up a bit. I just want to slap you around a little bit” before the punches started flying.

Brandon’s legal team argued the rapper threw the first blow, while DaBaby’s side maintained Brandon was the aggressor who started the whole thing. Now it’s finally over.

Brandon had sued both DaBaby and the bowling alley itself, claiming he suffered injuries during the melee.

The case being resolved represents a rare moment of peace in a situation that defined a chunk of DaBaby’s legal troubles over the past few years.

Court records show the dismissal will be finalized by mid-July 2026.
