Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson emerges victorious in a 1 billion USD lawsuit, triumphing over allegations from former drug kingpin Cory Ghost Holland Sr.
In a significant legal victory, Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson has been exonerated in a 1 billion USD lawsuit filed by former drug kingpin Cory Ghost Holland Sr. Holland had accused the rapper and TV mogul of using his life story as the basis for the hit series “Power.”
Judge Dismisses 1 Billion USD Lawsuit
According to AllHipHop, Judge Analisa Torres recently dismissed the lawsuit, ruling in favor of 50 Cent and his production team. The court determined that the crime drama series “Power” did not reference Holland’s life story. This legal battle began in 2021 when Holland filed a lawsuit against 50 Cent, “Power” co-creator Courtney Kemp, Starz, and Lionsgate. He alleged that the series extensively drew from his personal experiences, which he had shared via a CD sent to Kemp’s father, in hopes of escaping his criminal past.
Allegations of Harassment and Intimidation
Holland also accused 50 Cent of harassment, alleging that the rapper sent his associates to intimidate him. Additionally, Holland filed a lawsuit against Lionsgate and Starz, claiming they failed to protect him from threats allegedly made by 50 Cent and his associates.
50 Cent’s Celebratory Response
Following the court victory, 50 Cent took to Instagram to celebrate with a characteristic touch of humor. He posted a screenshot of the headline announcing his win, accompanied by a cheeky caption: “Fool thought he was Ghost 😆 da fvck wrong wit these 🥷’s man 🤨 LOL.”
Conclusion
This ruling marks a significant win for 50 Cent, further solidifying his standing as a formidable force in the entertainment industry. The dismissal of this high-profile lawsuit underscores the challenges of proving such allegations in court and highlights the importance of robust legal defenses in protecting creative works.
