Oscar-winning screenwriter Paul Haggis was arrested on charges of sexual abuse in southern Italy last month. Now, an Italian court has reportedly ruled that the case against Haggis be dismissed as there are no grounds to continue the investigation against the 69-year-old filmmaker. An attorney for Haggis, Priya Chaudhry, had previously issued a statement declaring Haggis "totally innocent."
