According to a report TMZ a North Carolina judge has hit Yo Gotti with a $6.6 million default judgment after an artist named Young Fletcher allegedly paid $20,000 for a Gotti song collab that was either never released or was never recorded in the first place. TMZ says Gotti blew off the recording session, but they also say Fletcher was suing in part because Gotti never released the song, which suggests that the song was, in fact, made.
It’s also alleged that Gotti went and recorded a song similar to the one he was making with Young Fletcher before going behind the back of Fletcher’s manager and trying sign the artist to a $150,000 deal to his record label.
Last year, Gotti was reportedly served court papers regarding the case while performing onstage but he apparently never responded to the suit. During a recent hearing, the judge allegedly granted a $2.2 million judgment and then tripled the payout because the judge found “willful, unfair and deceptive acts” conducted by Gotti.
Fletcher’s manager, Michael Terry, told TMZ that they are planning to go after Gotti’s Bel-Air mansion, cars and other luxury items in order to collect the money.
