Overview
- In mid-July a Los Angeles law firm, Gordon Rees Scully Mansukhani LLP, filed a suit saying it is owed $229,541 for work on a 2024 copyright case.
- Court filings reported by media say the case was entered into default after no response from Minaj or her team.
- A hearing set for September will decide whether the court will enter a default judgment that could order payment of the claimed amount plus legal fees and court costs.
- Alex Bruesewitz, a close associate, posted a public denial of the media reports, leaving the public narrative contested while the court process proceeds.
- The lawsuit follows other recent claims against Minaj, including a $275,000 production dispute and a settled $10 million stalking-related suit, raising questions about ongoing financial and legal exposure.
