A two-year rape investigation against magician David Copperfield has been closed without charges being filed, US authorities have said.
A Seattle woman, whose identity has not been disclosed, claimed he sexually assaulted her on his private island in the Bahamas in 2007.
His lawyers have previously dismissed her claims as an attempt at "extortion for money, plain and simple".
The woman's lawyer, Rebecca Roe, said her client was "disappointed".
"But it wasn't completely unexpected given the jurisdictional issue of prosecuting him here for something that happened on his private island," Ms Roe added.
The US Attorney's Office in Seattle said the decision "should not be perceived as a comment on guilt or innocence".
