BOSSIP Exclusive: Judge Spares “Black Ink’s” Caesar Jail Over Back Child Support

Reality Star Now Current On Child Support “Black Ink’s” Caesar has escaped serving jail time in his back child support case. Last week, a Manhattan Family Court judge spared Caesar – who was born David Emmanuel – from serving six months in jail after he was able to prove that he was up to date on his child support payments after owing more than $7,000 in support for his tween daughter. But Judge Susan Knipps warned the tattoo shop owner turned reality star that if he fell behind on his payments again, she’d make him serve the original sentence of six months of weekends in the city jail. Cops arrested Caesar last year for owing more than $15,000 in back child support after apparently ignoring the court order that requires him to hand over $360 a week for his daughter. Two weeks ago, the judge ripped Caesar for still owing $7,239.62 in back child support, and told him he’d be jailed if he didn’t pay off the full amount by May 6. His baby mama, Crystal Torres, complained to the judge last month that Caesar hadn’t been making regular payments. But Ceasar’s lawyer, Andrew Plasse, said they’ve put it all behind them. “He’s paid up to date and he’s two weeks ahead,” Plasse told BOSSIP. “He’s a good father and he loves his daughter very much. Everything is resolved.”

Bankrupt 50 Cent Claims Credit Companies Are Trying To Make Him Their Slave By Demanding The Money He Owes

50 Compares Debt Repayment To Slavery 50 Cent’s bankruptcy saga continues…this time with the really rich rapper claiming that his creditors are attempting to make him a modern-day slave with their plan of recouping the $30 million he still owes them. Via TMZ : 50 Cent is lashing out at some of the creditors in his bankruptcy case, telling the judge they are trying to set the clock more than 150 years and gunning to make him their slave. Three of 50’s biggest creditors — Sleek Audio, SunTrust Bank and Lastonia Leviston — have come up with a payback plan and are asking the judge’s approval. 50 has just responded, claiming the plan violates the 13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution which bans slavery and involuntary servitude. He says the plan would create “a near-indefinite period of involuntary indentured servitude” where he has to work solely for the creditors’ benefit. He goes on to say, “The plan conditions [50’s] access to food and shelter on the whims of the trustee, who answers only to the [creditors].” He claims it amounts to “compulsive labor” which he says is unconstitutional. 50 owes his creditors more than 30 mil. Something tells us this argument may not hold up too well… Continue reading

BOSSIP Exclusive: Judge Calls Mathew Knowles A Bad Dad, Orders Him To Pay $71K Child Support!!

Judge Calls Out Beyonce’s Dad For Being A Deadbeat To Daughter Koi, 5 Deadbeat dad Mathew Knowles tried to buy his baby mama’s silence with $225,000 after she told him she was pregnant with their now five-year-old daughter. That’s according to a Houston family court judge, who ripped Knowles for giving baby mama Taqoya Branscomb the $225,000 “hush money” payment to persuade her from hauling him into court for child support. “ Mr. Knowles knew of his paternity in September 2009 and clearly sought to avoid the establishment of a support obligation based primarily on the tolling agreement and the payment of monies pursuant to said agreement, which the court can only reasonably conclude was hush money,” Judge David D. Farr wrote as part of his ruling in Harris County District Court. Koi was born in 2010, while Knowles was still married to Beyonce’s mother, Tina. Branscomb sued Knowles in 2014 over the paternity of the little girl, and the pair had been duking it out in court ever since. In a ruling last month, the judge sided with Branscomb, ordering Knowles’ wages garnished to pay her $70,822 in back child support plus interest, along with $1,496 a month in regular child support. Knowles is also now responsible for the child’s health insurance as well as $50,000 in Branscomb’s attorney fees.

BOSSIP Exclusive: Chad “Ochocinco” Johnson Facing Foreclosure

Former NFL Player Faces Foreclosure After Blowing Off Lawsuit Over Unpaid Bills Ex-NFL star Chad Johnson has blown off a legal battle over unpaid bills on his Florida mansion and now the judge presiding over the case is close to ordering the pad be sold off at foreclosure due to the football star not even showing up to court. The Long Lake Ranches West Homeowners Association sued Johnson back in May in Broward County, Fl. Court, accusing the former NFL star of owing them over $3,500 in fees and costs related to his pad. The association demanded the court allow them to foreclose on the property and sell it off at auction to get the money owed from the sale off the home. The suit seeks to have the court allow them to kick Johnson out of his home and sell off the property at public auction. Johnson purchased the Davie, FL pad back in 2005 for $1,365,000 – and it was also the scene of the infamous head butting arrest with ex-wife Evelyn Lozada. Then on December 16th, the homeowners association filed a motion for default judgment against Johnson because he’s blown off the case for several months despite being served with the lawsuit. The association is pleading with the judge presiding over the case to grant them their motion for default judgment and allow them to kick Johnson out of his home and sell it off at auction ASAP. The judge has yet to make a decision. Instagram Continue reading

Stop The Violence: Famed Detroit Bassist Anthony Tolson Killed In Christmas Eve Carjacking

Stop the violence… Anthony Tolson Murdered A famed bassist was tragically killed in Detroit during the Christmas holiday while going to see his family. 33-year-old Anthony Tolson, who toured with the likes of Young Jeezy and Ne-Yo , was murdered on Christmas Eve after assailants fatally shot him and stole his SUV. The Detroit Free Press reports: On Christmas Eve, Anthony Tolson had finished playing bass guitar at a church service and was driving to see his three kids on Detroit’s east side. Yet Tolson never made it. He was shot and killed by multiple assailants who then stole his SUV that contained his bass and gifts for his kids: William, 7; Aaron, 12, and Amber, 13. The tragedy has left his close friends struggling to understand how Tolson, 33, who friends say has toured with artists like Ne-Yo, Young Jeezy, Kelis and J. Moss, became the victim of violence. On Christmas Eve, Tolson finished performing at Central Baptist Church in Detroit. He was headed to his mother’s house on the east side, where his kids were staying and where he planned to open gifts with them in the morning. But at around 9:30 p.m., two assailants ordered Tolson out of his gray Chevrolet Trailblazer near Gratiot and State Fair Avenue before shots were fired, said Sgt. Cassandra Lewis, a Detroit Police spokeswoman. (Police did not identify Tolson by name.) The suspects then drove away in the vehicle, Lewis added. No other details were released. Anyone with information about the shooting can call Detroit Police Homicide Division at 313-596-2260. Ne-yo has since expressed his condolences. This is so incredibly tragic and senseless.

In White Folks News: Madonna Launches International Custody War After Her Son Refuses To Spend Christmas With Her

Madonna Asks Courts To Force Son To Spend Christmas With Her Madonna’s been on a world tour for over a year now, taking her children along for the ride. But her 15-year-old son Rocco has decided he’s had enough of the road life, misses his father, and would just like to have a calm Christmas in London. However…Madonna isn’t having it and she’s getting legal backup to force him home . Via TMZ : Madonna’s 15-year-old son has flown the coup so he could stay with his dad … the teen refuses to come home, Madonna went to court, Guy Ritchie went to another court … it’s a mess. It seems Rocco is sick of tagging along with mom during her world tour, and Thanksgiving on the road with her may have been the final straw. Rocco jumped ship and decided to live with his dad, Guy Ritchie over in London, and refused to return to Manhattan to spend XMAS with Madonna. That enraged her and, according to the NY Post, she personally ran to court Wednesday with her lawyer to get an order to force Ritchie to ante up their son. When Ritchie’s lawyer said Rocco expressed a clear desire to stay with his dad, Madonna started to go nuclear but her lawyer muzzled her. In the end, the judge ordered Rocco to return, but that wasn’t the end of it. Ritchie went to a London court, and it appears the judge has determined the case should be heard in New York where the original custody matter was handled. A hearing has now been set where Rocco will make his case. Man, let that little boy spend Christmas with his father! She’s already taken him all over the world with her. He’s old enough to make his own decision to sit still and spend time with his dad. Splash
