Are seeking to be dismissed from a civil lawsuit filed by the family of Terry Carter, who died in the Jan. 29 incident.

Carter's lawsuit said the rappers and Straight Outta Compton producers should have attempted to make a safe environment on set, given the hostilities between Knight and Dr. Dre.

And that they should be held "vicariously liable" – a secondary form of liability – for the actions of one of the film's technical advisors, Cle "Bone" Sloan.

Dr. Dre and Ice Cube said in their motion that they committed no malfeasance and that their only role in the matter was giving Sloan a "specific request" to ask Knight to leave.

"These allegations plainly demonstrate that allowing Suge to remain at the base camp posed a serious risk that Suge could have injured someone at the camp – including Dr. Dre, Bone or one of the numerous cast and crew working on the film," the rappers' paperwork said.
