Majors is facing four charges of harassment and assault after being arrested following the alleged domestic violence incident.
London-based Jabbari initially told police Majors had beaten and strangled her, but the strangulation charges were dropped.
Now he’s only accused of hurting her arm after police noticed she suffered minor injuries from the alleged ordeal.
Majors lost his request to dismiss his domestic violence charge in court on Wednesday and will now appear in court.
Judge Michael Gaffey made the ruling at a hearing in Manhattan, which Majors attended via video link because he was out of state.
On September 12, his attorneys filed the motion, claiming the state withheld evidence that would prove Majors’ innocence. This was denied on Wednesday.
No start date for the trial period has been set.

The messy proceedings were further thrown into disarray when Majors filed a cross-complaint against Jabbari, saying it was she who attacked him.
An NYPD document was prepared warning officers that there was probable cause to arrest Jabbari in June.
The prosecutor in the case has reportedly said they will not prosecute Jabbari, reports said Hollywood reporter.
Jabbari’s attorney has not commented, nor has the NYPD.
Priya Chaudhry, Jonathan Majors’ attorney, also made no comment but has previously expressed her firm belief that her client Majors is innocent and that Jabbari should be apprehended.
The opposing sides disagree on who the perpetrator of the March 25 event is.
According to court documents, the couple was sitting in a car when Jabbari saw a message on Majors’ phone that read, “I wish I kissed you right now.” She grabbed the phone, and Majors twisted her forearm and hit her ear.
She tried to get out of the car and he “knocked her back inside,” leaving her in “continuing significant pain, including a broken finger, bruising around her body, a laceration behind her right ear and a bump on her head,” according to the documents. stands.

On August 4, Priya Chaudhry said in a statement to DailyMail.com: “Jonathan Majors has been waiting 132 days to clear his name of these false charges, while the NYPD waits to arrest his accuser upon her return to New York.”
And on August 3, the attorney said, “One hundred and thirty-one days ago, authorities wrongfully handcuffed Jonathan Majors in his own home and hauled him off to jail based on the word of a woman now being hunted by the NYPD.
“Boldly, Jonathan Majors exposed to the NYPD the brutal, alcohol-fueled abuse he suffered at the hands of Grace Jabbari, an enduring nightmare in their relationship.
“As soon as Jabbari sets foot in New York again, the NYPD will be ready to arrest her.
“For four months, his life, career and reputation were torn apart for Jonathan Majors, the real victim of this shameful ordeal.
“Yet he remains steadfast in his determination to be freed from this harrowing ordeal.”
Chaudhry requested an expedited trial date for Majors in June, in an effort to expedite the case.
Then on September 6, the plaintiffs said they were ready for trial and had filed a certificate of compliance. Majors’ lawyer claimed to have found flaws in the document.
This is why they filed a motion to dismiss, which has now been denied.
