Lawsuits: Photog Wants Yeezus To Face Trial In Civil Case Over LAX Attack

Kanye may not have to do jail time, but he’s going to have to give up those coins. Photographer Determined To Take Kanye West To Trial Kanye needs to learn it’s cheaper to ignore the paparazzi. According to TMZ: Kanye West isn’t out of the woods after striking a plea deal in the criminal case stemming from his photog attack last summer — he’s still facing a nasty civil lawsuit … and we’re told the pap is determined to take the rapper to trial. Normally in civil situations involving celebs — car accidents, fights, property damage, whatever — the victim settles for a quick payday in exchange for dropping their lawsuit … but not this time. Sources close to photog Daniel Ramos — who sued Yeezy for assault and battery after the LAX incident — tell TMZ, Ramos is so confident in his case, he’s refusing to settle for any amount of money … he wants to go the whole nine with Kanye and bring his azz to court. We’re told a trial date has already been set in the case and Ramos is going full steam ahead — no sign anywhere of a settlement agreement. And get this — we’re told Ramos’ attorney Gloria Allred has already sent Kanye notice for a deposition … and you thought Lil Wayne and Justin Bieber were good.

What The Hell? Cop Tasers Man Being Treated For Seizure Inside Ambulance, Then Has Him Jailed!

It’s bad enough the man had a seizure, they had to taser him too? Police Taser Man Having Seizure These stories of police abusing their power are getting out of hand. According to Raw Story: A Pennsylvania man said police shocked him with a Taser stun gun while he was receiving medical attention in an ambulance for an apparent seizure. Darren Scott, of Upland, was jailed on $100,000 bond on charges including aggravated assault of a law enforcement officer and resisting arrest following the March 12 incident, reported The Philadelphia Inquirer . Police said the 48-year-old Scott was “extremely combative,” kicked a paramedic, and grabbed and pushed a police officer, who said he believed the patient was under the influence of narcotics. But Scott’s attorney said his client had smoked only a small amount of marijuana the night before. An employee of Two Js Sandwich Shop told police she was waiting on Scott when she noticed his eyes roll back into his head, so she grabbed his clothes to steady him and keep him from falling. Emergency crews were called, and Scott was placed on a stretcher and taken to an ambulance over his protests. Both police and prosecutors are investigating the incident. “We look at it from the perspective of what a reasonable police officer would do,” said District Attorney Jack Whelan, adding that the officer did not use the Taser until Scott kicked the paramedic in the chest. But Scott’s attorney said his client should never have been jailed. “You have a seizure and end up with a criminal case. How does that happen?” Latoison said. Damn shame. Shutterstock
