Kanye West’s attorneys with the Greenberg Traurig Law Firm are trying to part ways with him but because they can’t seem to find him to serve him papers to do so, they’re now resorting to taking out newspaper ads to inform him that he’s fired. Calling it a “multi-prong approach,” court docs have said “Publication of the Withdrawal Order’s contents in two Los Angeles-area newspapers, where Ye appears to reside, will also apprise him of the Withdrawal Order. Given Ye’s public status, publication of the Withdrawal Order will likely garner significant media attention, resulting in broader publication and provide an even greater likelihood of apprising Ye of the Order.”
It all started with claims he stole a KRS-One song and now at this point because he’s been avoiding the lawsuit, it could cost him millions. It was for an uncleared sample of ‘Boogie Down Productions’ “South Bronx” on his 2021 track “Life of the Party.” The lawsuit came from Phase One which owns most of the rights to Boogie Down Productions and was filed last November with him being served in December but he’s never responded to the complaint. Meanwhile Judge Analisa Torres granted Greenberg Traurig’s motion to withdraw as West’s counsel on November 30th. But since Kanye’s been ducking people to include his ex business manager, the Greenberg Traurig Law Firm has been forced to take matters into their own hands.
And in other Kanye news, he just married a Yeezy employee and this comes just a couple months after his divorce from Kim Kardashian was finalized. While they didn’t get a marriage license yet, they did have a private ceremony to show their commitment. Perhaps his new wife will influence his legal decisions where he’ll soften up and actually respond to these cases and quit ducking. It looks like we’ll have to just wait and find out at this point.
