DA: Review of Mel Gibson criminal case ongoing

LOS ANGELES (AP) -January 19, 2011

The statement by District Attorney Steve Cooley didn't indicate when prosecutors will decide whether to pursue charges against the Academy Award winner. Gibson's ex-girlfriend, Oksana Grigorieva claims the actor-director struck her during a fight in January 2010.

Cooley says Gibson's attorneys presented information about the accusations during Tuesday's meeting. His statement didn't address Gibson's allegations that Grigorieva attempted to extort him.

The former couple have been locked in a bitter custody dispute over their infant daughter for months.
