On July 17, he has won the first round of the defamation suit and his lawyers will be able to subpoena Twitter in order to learn the identities of the women behind the Twitter handle that accused of alleged sexual assault. According to NBC News, Bieber‘s lawyer, Evan N. Spiegel, told Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Terry Green that “We just want to uncover who is behind these two accounts and it may be the same person.”

On June 25, Bieber filed a $20 million lawsuit against two women. According to Pitchfork, the suit claims the Twitter users "fraudulently schemed to seek attention and fame by maliciously posting despicable, blatantly false, fabricated, defamatory accusations that Justin Bieber engaged in sexual assault.”

It further stated that “it is abundantly clear that these two individuals are trying to capitalize on the climate of fear permeating the entertainment industry.”
