Although Megan Thee Stallion<\/a> and Tory Lanez<\/a> wrapped up their shooting case almost three years ago, they continue to deal with the fallout.<\/a> In the latter’s case, he still claims he’s innocent and is still trying to get out of prison. In the former’s case, she’s trying to stop folks from lying about the case and tarnishing her reputation, even after the verdict.<\/p>\n

We’re talking about Megan Thee Stallion’s lawsuit against Milagro Gramz,<\/a> a blogger (real name Milagro Cooper) whom she’s accusing of defamation in federal court. Megan alleges that Gramz accepted payment and coordinated with Lanez and others to intentionally spread misinformation about the case for the purposes of defaming the Houston femcee.<\/p>\n

Now, on Thursday (August 28) \u2013 per Billboard<\/a> – she motioned to sanction the Canadian artist’s friend Caesar McDowell for an allegedly “utterly disrespectful, uncivil and antagonistic” deposition, according to her legal team. McDowell runs the Unite The People legal organization and is accused of relaying messages from Tory to Milagro Gramz.<\/p>\n

Lawyers deposed him in July, and they claim he refused to answer pretty much every question or feigned ignorance at every turn. Also, they accused McDowell of sparking a joint, calling one of them a “b***h,” and walking out of the room during the deposition.<\/p>\n

“His conduct shocked the conscience and made a mockery of this court\u2019s authority,” attorneys reportedly wrote. “Because of his egregious behavior, the court should sanction Mr. McDowell.”<\/p>\n

“All three men \u2014 Messrs. Peterson, McDowell and Allen \u2014 used the same strategy of systematic evasion when discovery threatened to expose their coordination,” the attorneys reportedly claimed. “Their synchronized obstruction reveals a coordinated effort to shield their defamation campaign from scrutiny and prevent Ms. Pete from obtaining evidence of the damages it caused.”<\/p>\n

Furthermore, the judge in this case ordered on Friday (August 29) that McDowell will face a re-deposition under court supervision. A hearing for next Friday (September 5) will discuss the possibility of his financial sanctions ahead of the Milagro Gramz trial in Miami this November, if everything goes according to schedule.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Although Megan Thee Stallion and Tory Lanez wrapped up their shooting case almost three years ago, they continue…\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":185900,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[4219,73150,171,2260,40585,81004,975,50,81005,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-185899","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-music","8":"tag-crime","9":"tag-deposition","10":"tag-entertainment","11":"tag-hip-hop-news","12":"tag-megan-thee-stallion","13":"tag-milagro-gramz","14":"tag-music","15":"tag-news","16":"tag-tory-lanez","17":"tag-united-states","18":"tag-unitedstates","19":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115114818093708850","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/185899","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=185899"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/185899\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/185900"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=185899"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=185899"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=185899"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
