Kanye West is in the clear.
According to E! News, the Los Angeles District Attorney has declined to prosecute or pursue charges against the rapper following an alleged assault incident in Beverly Hills earlier this month.
It was reported last week that this outcome was a possibilty after the alleged assault victim failed to appear at a followup interview with authorities. Criminal defense attorney Troy Slaten (who is not directly involved with the case) told E! News at the time that authorities usually want victims to come in after the incident so they can explain the extent of the injuries, show results of any medical exams and/or treatments to compile the most complete and accurate report to the District Attorney.

  However, Slaten added that, "If they don't have a cooperative victim, the case is harder to prosecute. If you have no victim, it would most likely get dismissed."
