Diddy Earns Minor Legal Victory After Judge Dismisses $100 Million Judgement From Michigan Inmate

Diddy may be in federal custody right now, but at least he’s not going to have to fork out $100 million. According to a recent report from TMZ, Judge Anna Marie Anzalone is tossing out the sexual assault lawsuit from current Michigan inmate Derrick Lee Cardello-Smith. The reason being is because Mr. Cardello-Smith “failed to prove he effectively served the lawsuit in accordance with Michigan law”. The mogul’s attorney, David Fink, was the one who was able to orchestrate this victory.

If you remember, Mr. Cardello-Smith says he experienced a sexual assault encounter with Diddy back at a Detroit, Michigan party in 1997. The time in between the act and the filing of the lawsuit is key here for this reason too. Judge Anzalone is also removing the motion from the convicted felon that would have prohibited Diddy from selling assets to cover the costs. She’s doing this because she’s almost 100 percent certain the Bad Boy Records founder will win this case based on statute of limitations alone.

Prior to this new update, Diddy was going to have to pay installments of $10 million, but that’s only because he didn’t issue a response. On September 12 was when he filed the motion that was accepted today to have it waived. Now, Diddy will most likely request to have this entire lawsuit wiped, but always stick with us no matter what the next step is.

What are your thoughts on Diddy securing a small win against the Michigan prisoner? Is this going to be the only legal issue he wins moving forward? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Diddy.

Yo Gotti Is Worth $100 Million According To Forbes

Yo Gotti was Forbes‘ latest cover issue subject on Friday (February 23), and the outlet revealed that he is reportedly worth a staggering $100 million. Moreover, this is due to his highly successful record label, CMG, a minority stake in the D.C. United team in the MLS, and his Memphis restaurant Prive. “If I never wrote another rap again, I’m financially straight,” the Tennessee rapper and business mogul shared. “My whole career, I was setting up for that.” Elsewhere during the interview, he also indicated that he has no plans of slowing down or pumping the brakes on any of his lucrative endeavors.

“It’s in the process,” Yo Gotti remarked about his massive success. “I’m planting the seeds. A lot of people don’t have patience. They want it all tomorrow. So they can’t execute a real plan… What I do know, we’re coming out on top.” “I may want to buy a company or acquire another com­pany,” he said of his decision to study business at UCLA. “So I’m making sure I’m super tight and understand the language and the verbiage myself.”

Yo Gotti For Forbes

Sadly for the Memphis MC, it must have been very hard to focus on his career, success, and blessings in the recent past. His brother Big Jook tragically lost his life in their home city, which shook the community to its core and from which his loved ones and close associates are still recovering from. While Yo Gotti already made some public appearances since this incident, he’s yet to fully unpack this with all the sets of eyes and ears on him and his career. That is something that should come at his own pace, and not feel rushed or pressured to get back in front of microphones.

Meanwhile, over this past holiday season, the 42-year-old was able to share his wealth and lavish lifestyle with his family and friends. Hopefully these loved ones continued to be with each other and celebrate life, especially to honor the legacy and memory of Big Jook. But one thing is clear from this Forbes interview: there’s still a long way to go and a lot more goals to achieve. For more news and the latest updates on Yo Gotti, keep checking in with HNHH.

Ja Rule’s New Label Deal “Worth $100 Million,” He Alleges While Telling “Haters” To “SMD”

After the fallout he faced from the Fyre Festival fiasco of 2017, some thought Ja Rule’s career would never recover. However, the embattled rapper has made significant strides in turning his life around since then, and now has high hopes of rising to the top of the music industry again. Early on Thursday (January 4), Ja logged onto Twitter/X to share some exciting news with his fanbase. “Just signed my new label deal, potentially worth a hundred mill… [Let’s f**king go!!!].” the 47-year-old began, before taking shots at anyone that’s been praying for his downfall recently.

“Thanks for the love, and to the haters, [suck my d**k],” he declared. Minutes later, in another post, Ja shared what vibes he plans to be on in the new year. “Here’s what’s needed to be understood for 24. HATE is for suckers and dick riding is NOT a form of transportation. Lmao, it’s getting you nowhere… Stop being goofy and get money!!! That’s what Ja thinks.” Less than an hour later, the “Mesmerize” artist reminded us he’s still got it when it comes to rhyming.

“B**ch ni**as hate, real ones congratulate,” the father of three told the world. Afterward, he encourage those who support him to go a bit harder when defending his name, like the Barbz do for Nicki Minaj. “I need them a**hole fans that go at [people’s] head for talking bad on my name. Lmao, my fans not sav*ge enough,” Ja observed, prompting many to come forward with stories of them sticking up for one of their favourite rappers, both on and offline. “I been defending you since the 6th grade… I’m 33 now, still defending you lol,” someone told him beneath his tweet. “People hate when I say without Ja there would be no Drake.”

As he continues to prepare his first album since 2012’s PIL 2, Ja Rule’s confidence is evident. He’s already making his presence felt online this year, and longtime fans of the East Coast icon are celebrating the anniversary of one of his biggest hits – “Always On Time” with Ashanti.
