Megan Thee Stallion<\/a>\u2019s legal team is pushing back on Milagro Gramz\u2019s motion to halt her $75,000 defamation judgment<\/a> in favor of the rapper.<\/p>\n In early June, Gramz asked the presiding judge to allow her to delay payment until after she appeals the defamation judgment, citing financial hardship and the risk that paying the judgment could undermine her pending appeal.<\/p>\n On Tuesday, Meg\u2019s attorneys issued a response, obtained by Complex, in which she requested that Gramz post a bond equal to the judgment amount.<\/p>\n Meg described Gramz as \u201cthe same Defendant who showed no hesitation when she broadcast that Plaintiff was a liar, directed her audience to a deep-fake pornographic video of Plaintiff, and threatened to run Plaintiff over with a car, now pleads for the Court\u2019s solicitude so that she may avoid the consequences of a jury\u2019s verdict and this Court\u2019s judgment.\u201d<\/p>\n COMPLEX SHOP:<\/b> Shop the brands you love, anytime and anywhere. Uncover what’s next. Buy. Collect. Obsess.<\/a><\/p>\n The document continued, \u201cSympathy cannot displace the governing legal standard. Defendant\u2019s Motion should be denied in its entirety, and if any stay is to issue, it should be conditioned upon a full supersedeas bond in the amount of the judgment plus anticipated interest and costs.\u201d<\/p>\n On May 29, Chief U.S. District Judge Cecilia M. Altonaga ruled in favor of Megan Thee Stallion, reversing an earlier dismissal and restoring the jury’s verdict of defamation liability<\/a>. Days later, on June 2, Gramz filed a stay request as she appealed the case.<\/p>\n In the filing, Gramz described herself as a “self-employed media commentator, researcher, and content creator” whose income derives from subscriptions, platform monetization, audience support, and revenue streams that oscillate from month to month.<\/p>\n “I do not possess substantial liquid assets and do not have the financial resources necessary to immediately satisfy the judgment or post a full supersedeas bond,” Gramz wrote, adding that she supports a household with two minor children.<\/p>\n The jury that originally found Gramz liable had determined she coordinated with Tory Lanez and his father to defame Megan<\/a>. The rapper was awarded $75,000 after the judge reinstated the jury\u2019s defamation verdict and entered a new amended final judgment.<\/p>\n <\/a> Milagro Gramz Asks Federal Judge to Pause $75,000 Megan Thee Stallion Judgment During Appeal<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n <\/a> Megan Thee Stallion Gets Defamation Verdict Against Milagro Cooper Reinstated<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n <\/a> Tory Lanez’s Lawyers to Represent Blogger Sued by Megan Thee Stallion<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n Fabolous Says ’95 Percent’ of Rap Beefs Are About ‘B*tches’<\/a><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n LeBron James Says J.
