Justin Bieber will not be prosecuted for allegedly stealing a woman's phone.
The 20-year-old singer was accused of snatching the device at a mini-golf complex in the San Fernando Valley, California last month, but the Los Angeles City Attorney's office has officially rejected the case due to a "lack of evidence," according to gossip website TMZ.com.
The L.A. County District Attorney (D.A.) referred the case to the city attorney for misdemeanour consideration last week after they decided that the 'Confident' singer should not face felony charges because nine witnesses said the woman made up the alleged robbery.
The woman claimed at the time that Justin demanded to see her phone so he could delete pictures he believed she had taken of him, but when she refused, he grabbed it from her bag.
She said she began "wrestling" with the star for the phone and although he allegedly "ripped it out of her hands" he wasn't able to access the pictures because the phone was locked.
Justin was said to have demanded she unlock it and she proved she hadn't taken any photographs, before he allegedly "screamed" at her and upset her 13-year-old daughter.
Justin previously denied the incident ever happened on Twitter, writing: "It is hard to defend myself and my privacy every moment of the day. Then to see rumours. The truth will set u free. (sic)"
He then continued: "My mom raised me to be kind to others. I get judged, harassed, and I try to take the high road. Sometimes it isn't easy. But we keep trying...
"I will continue to be the man my mother raised. I love people and I will try to be kind even when things are not fair. Don't believe rumours...(sic)"

Tracy Morgan's condition has been upgraded to fair.
The '30 Rock' star sustained a number of injuries - including a broken femur, a broken nose and broken ribs - when a Walmart truck smashed into the limo bus he was travelling in on the New Jersey Turnpike on June 7, but has made strong signs of improvement and is no longer in a critical condition.
His representative said: "He has been upgraded to fair condition, which is a great improvement.
"His personality is certainly starting to come back as well."
Tracy's assistant Jeffrey Millea was also seriously injured in the crash, but the comic's representative confirmed his condition has also been upgraded to fair.
The nasty collision killed a fellow passenger, comedian James McNair, who performed under the name Jimmy Mack, while comedians Ardie Fuqua and Harris Stanton were also among those injured.
Kevin Roper, the truck driver involved in the crash, has been charged with one count of death by auto and four counts of assault by auto in connection with the crash, but pleaded not guilty during an appearance at Middlesex County Superior Court in New Jersey last week.
Following the hearing, Mr. Roper, 35, was released on $50,000 bail.

Johnny Depp is looking for a "weekend retreat" in London.
The 'Lone Ranger' actor and his fiancee Amber Heard enjoyed spending time in the UK last year so are looking to buy a base that will allow them to take regular short breaks, and the 28-year-old actress' dad David is already looking forward to joining them in the city.
David is quoted by The Sun newspaper as saying: "I think they will have at least a weekend retreat in England soon, around London as they both love it so much - and I enjoy visiting.
"Last September they were both in England and they were in a hotel. Then they rented something on the edge of London.
"They love it, I'm sure they will buy something there."
The couple were in London while Johnny, 51, shoots forthcoming movie 'Mortdecai' but it is unclear how much time the pair will get to spend in the UK this year as he is due in Puerto Rico in the coming months to start work on the next 'Pirates of the Caribbean' movie, and both stars are currently filming in the US.
It was recently revealed that Amber has been bonding with Johnny's children Lily-Rose, 14, and 12-year-old son Jack - who he has with former partner Vanessa Paradis - and they have been enjoying weekend breaks together.
A source said: "Johnny has gotten in the habit of setting up remote weekend getaways with Amber and the kids, and usually he will lease a helicopter and have them all ferried to a remote location or resort in Southern California."

Una Foden devotes all her free time to her daughter.
The Saturdays singer has Aoife, two, with her husband, England player Ben Foden and she tries to spend as much time as possible with her little girl and her man when the band's busy schedule allows.
She told the new UK issue of OK! magazine: "When I'm not working I spend all my time with Aoife. Ben's a really hands-on dad, too, so he really plays a vital role."
Although she likes being at home, Una is still fully committed to the girl group - made up of Rochelle Humes, Mollie King, Vanessa White and Frankie Sandford - and insists they won't be splitting any time soon.
She explained: "We'll be around as long as the fans will have us!"
Una's bandmate Rochelle - who has a 13-month-old daughter Alaia-Mai with her husband, former JLS singer Marvin Humes - is also determined to be with her child as much as she can and is always thinking about what motherly duties she needs to carry out.
Rochelle said: "I find myself planning all of the baby's meals, and hers are all really healthy. I'm trying to make a conscious effort, but it is easier said than done!"
Rumours have circulated that the band may separate after they release their 'Finest Selection: The Greatest Hits' album and tour the album later this year.
But Vanessa has reiterated Una's insistence they will be continuing as a group.
In the joint interview, Vanessa said: "We're not splitting up - it's the right time to do a greatest hits tour because we have been together now for seven years, and other people bring out a greatest hits much quicker."

Olivia Wilde claims Daniel Craig is terrible at paddleboarding.
The 30-year-old actress fell in love with the surface water sport while filming 'Cowboys & Aliens' alongside the buff British actor, 46, in 2011, but says he wasn't very good at it because he was "too muscly".
She told Oprah Winfrey's O magazine: "While shooting 'Cowboys & Aliens' in New Mexico, Jon Favreau taught Daniel Craig and me how to paddleboard on a lake. Daniel sank because he was too muscly, but my girl parts helped me balance!"
She added: "Jon gave me a board as a parting gift, and it's become a lovely pastime - like surfing with training wheels."
The brunette beauty, who has two-month-old son Otis with fiancé Jason Sudeikis, also revealed she loves collecting blazers and miniature objects.
She said: "Miniature objects, anything tiny: furniture, cameras, trees - all of which you'll find scattered around my home. 'Honey, I Shrunk the Kids' is everything I could dream of in a film."
Olivia got engaged to the 'We're The Millers' actor in January 2013, but they postponed their wedding after she got pregnant.
She previously insisted they were in no rush to get married, saying: "It's funny, people tend to skip over the engagement thing. They think it's like, 'oh, engaged.' And then you get there. I don't think you should spend your entire engagement planning a wedding. Because it's fun. It's this great time. It's like dating-plus."

The-Dream insists allegations he assaulted his former girlfriend are false.
The 36-year-old producer is being investigated over claims he attacked his former girlfriend Lydia Nam - who was eight months pregnant with their son at the time - at the New York Plaza Hotel in April 2012, but he has suggested his ex-lover made up the allegations to get money from him.
Asked about the allegations, he told TMZ: "Of course they are [false], I'm such a lovely person.
"They all told me, 'You got this much money, just know somebody will always want it.' It will [all work out]."
The songwriter - who wrote hits such as Justin Bieber's 'Baby' and Rihanna's 'Umbrella' - was arraigned in Manhattan Criminal Court last month and charged with assault, strangulation, harassment and reckless endangerment but was allowed to leave after posting $20,000 bail.
After leaving court, The-Dream - whose real name is Terius Nash - said: "I have nothing to say. It'll all come out. There are worse things in the world going on".
An attorney acting for the star told the judge his client was innocent and the accusations - which were not reported until November 2013 - stemmed from civil litigation and child support disputes.
However, police said the alleged victim didn't report the attack until so long afterwards because she was in fear of her life.
According to the criminal complaint, the songwriter "punched and choked" his then-girlfriend and threatened to kill her "like O.J. Simpson killed Nicole Brown."
The complaint further detailed that the producer allegedly pulled and dragged Lydia by the hair, twisted her necklace tightly around her neck to choke her, kicked and punched her in the head and grabbed her by the neck, pinning her to the wall and choking her again.
It was previously claimed friends of The-Dream - who also has a four-year-old daughter, Violet, with ex-wife Christina Milian and three other children with first wife Nivea - believe Canadian Lydia is a "vengeful woman" who has made the claims in order to extend her US visa.

Kourtney Kardashian threw Scott Disick out at the weekend.
The couple - who are currently renting a property in the Hamptons while filming 'Kourtney and Khloe Take the Hamptons' - had a furious row about his constant partying, which led to the 35-year-old brunette ordering his long-term partner out of the house on Saturday (14.06.14).
Kourtney - who is pregnant with the couple's third child - is said to be especially upset with Scott as when he drinks he often gets into arguments with other people.
Despite the row, friends of the pair insist it won't mean the end for the couple - who have four-year-old son Mason and 23-month-old daughter Penelope together - as they regularly get into arguments over the same topic.
A source told website TMZ: "Same old s**t. They fight, get back together, he parties, she doesn't like it."
It is unclear whether Kourtney has allowed 31-year-old Scott back into their house yet but she sent him a message via Instagram on Sunday (15.06.14), which was Father's Day.
She wrote: "Thanks for being a loving daddy more than anything else."
It is believed part of the argument was caught on camera for their reality show.

Katie Price claims her estranged husband Kieran Hayler is not "normal in the head" - but she is sticking by him.
The brunette beauty insists her spouse is getting professional help for his issues after she revealed earlier this year that he'd been having a "full blown sexual affair" with her former best friend Jane Pountney and she is prepared to see if he can change.
Speaking on her new show on FUBAR Radio, she told co-host Mark Dolan: "I know people are like, 'Get rid of him', and if a friend was telling me what's happened I'd say the same but when you're in that situation sometimes you've got to be an adult.
"It isn't normal what he's done at all. He can't be normal in the head to have done what he's done so he's getting help. I can only stick by him and just see what happens."
The 36-year-old star has 10-month-old son Jett with Kieran and is pregnant with their second child and despite previously being adamant she was going to divorce him, she's now hoping they'll be able to work things out.
Katie - who also has three other children, Harvey, 12, Junior, eight, and Princess Tiaamii, six, from previous relationships - said: "I'm not ruling anything out, he's getting help and time's a healer. I've come to a point and it's a serious matter. I've done absolutely nothing wrong. He's obviously been with my best friend and another woman and all I can do is deal with the situation and get him help and you never know he might end up being better than he was before.
Commenting on her relationship with Jane, she added: "What he's done to me is cruel. It's disgusting and what she's done is disgusting."
Katie also slammed her first husband Peter Andre - the father of Junior and Princess - claiming all he's interested in is "money and fame".
Quizzed on whether they were on good terms, she said: "No, not at all. It is a shame, but not at all. He's not a nice person. The Pete I know now is not the Pete that I met and to me it's all about fame and money with him now. What happens behind closed doors is definitely not the person you see on TV."
Katie was also previously married to cage fighter Alex Reid, her second spouse.

John Lennon's murderer was under the control of "dark" aliens determined to eradicate his messages of peace and love, it has been claimed.
The late Beatles legend was assassinated by Mark Chapman outside the Dakota Building in New York City in 1980, with the deranged fan blaming the "devil" for his actions.
Extraterrestrial expert Michael C. Luckman believes Lennon was at the centre of a battle between different species of aliens which resulted in his death.
Luckman - author of 'Alien Rock: The Rock 'n' Roll Extraterrestrial Connection' and a forthcoming sequel 'Rock Stars, Hollywood and Alien Contact: Celebrities' Inside Secrets' - claims Lennon was regularly sent messages from intergalactic beings to include in his music with him acting as a vessel for them, something he was able to do because of the way his brain was wired, and at one point Lennon even had a close encounter of the third kind.
The veteran UFO researcher exclusively told BANG Showbiz: "This is what enabled John Lennon to receive musical messages broadcast from space and compose hit songs celebrating peace, love and freedom. John was the ideal candidate for alien contact. "Much later on he had two UFO encounters, one which may have involved a meeting with four little grey aliens at the Dakota Apartments in New York City where he lived with Yoko Ono."
Luckman claims it was these messages of peace and love which led to Chapman - who is still incarcerated in prison for shooting the musician - being targeted by rival aliens determined to stop the 'Gimme Some Truth' singer from spreading his messages of love.
Luckman added: "When Chapman blamed the devil for ordering him to kill Lennon, he may have indeed been operating under the influence of negative entities who were upset with John's universal message of brotherhood and wanted to stop him dead in his tracks before he could become even more powerful.
"The circumstances that led to Lennon's death can easily be seen as a classic battle of light and dark forces, in this case a battle for the soul of rock 'n roll."
When describing the songwriting process, Lennon himself claimed he often "felt like a hollow temple filled with many spirits, each one passing through me, each one inhabiting me for a little time and then leaving me to be replaced by another".
While his widow Yoko Ono has previously stated she believes her deceased husband and his Beatles bandmates - Sir Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and the late George Harrison - were musical "mediums".
She is quoted as saying: "They were like mediums. They weren't conscious of everything they were saying, but it (the music) was coming through them."
