[EXCLUSIVE] Gucci Mane Scores Legal Victory While Locked Up in Prison
However, on the date of the concert Gucci showed up but only performed 3 songs — for a total of 15 minutes on stage — and then traveled 138 miles to the other concert in Tennessee. The company said Gucci was so bold that he even came back at that performance and stayed in the hotel Empire got him.
The company sued the rapper accusing him of ruining their ticket sales by advertising the 2nd gig and they wanted damages for the breach of contract and alleged fraud on his part. Empire also sought all money they spent on his fee, hotel, travel and promotion for the event.
Unfortunately, Gucci was arrested months after the lawsuit was filed and has been sitting in prison ever since.
The company had been attempting to have the lawsuit served on Gucci for over a year, with no luck despite Gucci not able to avoid service due to his location.
The Fulton County Court judge had enough of waiting and ordered the case be dismissed on September 5th, due to Empire Entertainment not having served the rapper within the time allowed by law.
