Lil Nas X<\/a> will have his felony battery charges dismissed as long as he complies with the court\u2019s mandated treatment plan, reports<\/a> Rolling Stone<\/em>\u2019s Nancy Dillon.<\/p>\n

The treatment includes two years in what is known as a mental-health diversion program. Judge Alan Schneider said the court\u2019s decision for potential dismissal stemmed from the rapper\u2019s diagnosis of bipolar disorder. In addition to the program, Judge Schneider said Hill must obey all laws for the next two years.<\/p>\n

In August 2025, Lil Nas X, real name Montero Hill, was arrested<\/a> after allegedly charging at police officers in Los Angeles. He later pled not guilty<\/a> to three counts of battery with injury on a police officer and one felony count of resisting an executive officer. Hill faced up to five years in prison if convicted.<\/p>\n

Pitchfork has reached out to Hill\u2019s representatives for further comment.<\/p>\n

Lil Nas X\u2019s last project, an EP called Days Before Dreamboy<\/em>, was released in 2025, ahead of a new album rumored to be titled Dreamboy<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
