The felony criminal case against former PFL welterweight Logan Storley has been closed following a pretrial diversion agreement.
According to online records, a pretrial diversion agreement was entered into the court record on July 24. As a result, Storley's surety bond was discharged, and an upcoming court hearing scheduled for Aug. 3 was canceled, with the case status updated to closed.
The resolution stems from a May 18 incident outside a strip club where Storley, 33, was arrested on a charge of **** ual battery.
In Florida, a pretrial diversion program allows defendants to complete court-mandated requirements – such as community service, counseling, or probation – in exchange for having charges formally dismissed, avoiding a trial and a criminal conviction on their record.
Following the court filing, Storley's attorney and manager Dave Martin issued a statement to MMA Junkie on the situation:

Ex-PFL fighter Logan Storley had the charges against him dropped after he was arrested on **** ual **** ault allegations back in May in Key West, Fla.
Online records in Monroe County show that prosecutors closed the case while canceling the next court hearing, which was originally scheduled for Aug. 3. No further details were made available, but the case is now closed and Storley is cleared from the charges.
"We are pleased that the criminal case involving Logan Storley has been resolved through a pretrial diversion program, after which the State has agreed to dismiss the charges," Storley's manager and attorney David Martin said in a statement sent to MMA Fighting.
"We want to thank attorneys Jeff and Diego Weiner for their exceptional representation and most importantly, we want to thank everyone who refused to rush to judgment. The presumption of innocence remains a cornerstone of our criminal justice system, and every person deserves fairness, due process, and the opportunity to have their case decided based on the facts, not public opinion.
"Logan is committed to becoming the best version of himself and looks forward to focusing on his family, his career, and the opportunities that lie ahead."

A California man accused of stealing jewelry was back behind bars less than 24 hours after walking out of jail, allegedly pulling off the exact same type of crime while already on pretrial probation, authorities said.
Andre Wiley, 19, was arrested last week after Sacramento County Sheriff's Office detectives said he teamed up with two other men in an alleged jewelry store theft just hours after being released from the Placer County Jail on his own recognizance for burglary, conspiracy and grand theft charges.
Investigators said Wiley and 18-year-olds Andrew Ivy and Kameryus Mayhand entered a local jewelry store together.
Authorities allege Ivy and Mayhand distracted employees by browsing merchandise while Wiley sat at a consultation desk and stole two pieces of jewelry before the trio fled.

On April 23, one of Pearce’s attorneys, Jacob Nunez, said Pearce agreed to enter a pretrial intervention program which would allow him to resolve the felony charges. Nunez said if Pearce completes a six-month diversion program without violation, the state of Florida will dismiss all charges.
Pearce was not with the team for the start of the voluntary offseason program in April.
