Rob Lowe's legal nightmare is over - the second of two nannies suing the actor has dropped her complaint against him.

Both Lowe and Laura Boyce's legal teams have requested her lawsuit be dismissed. It's unknown if a financial settlement has been made.

Boyce had alleged Lowe's wife Sheryl sexually abused her during the seven months she was employed by the family. Lowe countersued for defamation and violation of a confidentiality agreement.

The dismissal comes just hours after Lowe reached a similar agreement with former nanny Jessica Gibson, who he sued last April (08) claiming she had tried to extort money out of him through blackmail.

Gibson countersued, accusing the actor of groping her and exposing himself.

As with the Boyce case, both sides filed for a dismissal and no information about financial settlement was disclosed.
