Judge dismisses divorce case of Tory Lanez and wife

A Los Angeles judge has dismissed the divorce case filed by Raina Chassagne against her husband, the incarcerated singer Tory Lanez, effectively leaving the couple legally married. The dismissal, issued on August 7, 2026, was based on a lack of sufficient activity to move the proceeding toward a final judgment, according to court documents.

Chassagne filed for divorce in June 2024, citing irreconcilable differences and seeking legal and physical custody of the couple's son, Kailon. The couple had married on June 25, 2023, and listed their date of separation as June 1, 2024, meaning their marriage lasted less than a year before the filing. The dismissal closes the case but does not constitute a final judgment on the marriage or indicate a reconciliation.

The divorce proceeding unfolded while Lanez, whose legal name is Daystar Peterson, was serving a 10-year state prison sentence. He was convicted in December 2022 on charges of assault with a semiautomatic firearm, carrying a loaded and unregistered firearm in a vehicle, and negligently discharging a firearm related to the 2020 shooting of rapper Megan Thee Stallion. He was sentenced in August 2023.
