Lil' Wayne Hit With $1 Million Dollar Lawsuit Over Morgan U Incident

A woman who was trampled during a concert at Morgan State University featuring Lil' Wayne is suing the rapper for $1 million dollars, claiming she was injured after he threw a wad of money into the crowd.

 

Tyrique Layne filed the lawsuit yesterday (August 28) against Lil' Wayne, Cash Money Records, Universal Records and Lil' Wayne's touring company, Young Money Touring.

 

Layne and two other women were injured during an October 19, 2006 concert featuring Lil Wayne, after the popular rapper threw money into the college crowd, causing a mini-riot to break out.

 

Police pondered charging Lil' Wayne for the money throwing incident, but officials at Morgan State University opted to ban the rapper from the college campus permanently instead.

 

"It was as dangerous a thing to do as standing in a crowded movie theater and shouting, 'Fire,'" said Morgan State University spokesman Clinton Coleman.

 

According to the suit, Layne suffers from headaches, memory, loss, fatigue and neck and back pain.

FIRST OFF HE WAS AT A COLLEGE CAMPUS WITH A BUNCH OF "BROKE" STUDENTS, WHO WOULD BE THE ONE TO RIOT OVER THOSE 1'S. IF HE WAS AT A CLUB WITH GROWN PEOPLE IT WOULD HAVE WENT DIFFERENT. 1ST OF ALL DUDES IN THE CLUB DONT PICK UP MONEY WHEN ITS THROWN FOR EGO PURPOSES, AND THE CHICKS LOOK TO GOOD TO BE SCRAPING OVER MONEY. HE SHOULD PAY THE GIRLS THAT GOT HURT. THESE ARTIST ARENT ABOVE THE LAW, AND THEY ACT LIKE THEY DONT KNOW RIGHT FROM WRONG, BUT I GUESS IF YOU DIDNT FINISH HIGH SCHOOL, AND GOT A DEAL, YOU WOULDNT KNOW THAT MOST COLLEGE STUDENTS ARE BROKE. SHOT OUT TO ALL MY YOUNG BLACK COLLEGE STUDENTS THAT DONT BELIEVE RAP IS THE ONLY THING COOKING

It is amazing to me, how many comments on this, have referred to this woman as a "BITCH".  Why?  It's okay to disagree with her filing the lawsuit, but Lil Wyane and anybody else is beyond stupid for throwing money into a crowd at a concert.  Come on people...how can you justify this?  Didn't he learn anything from TI and his close friend when they did that in the Natti'?  Black People have a Loooooooooooooooooooong way to go.  No other artists throw money into their crowds but rappers.  Her lawsuit may be suspect to some people, but if Lil' Wayne had kept his money in his pocket, this conversation would not be happening.

She's a bitch for trying to take money from a black man who was trying to share his riches with his fans. The fans paid money for the show and Wayne gave it right on back. Where is the wrong in that? Like was said above, this greedy bitch probably dove head first to get some of that cash and got stomped on and blamed Wayne for it.

Another example of how lazy women will stop at nothing to earn a free paycheck. Get your own money biatch!

Fly Boi said:

I guess that's what happens when you try to show love for your fans. Also, rappers aren't the only one's who make it rain. Vince McMahon made it rain during FAN APPRECIATION night on WWE Monday Night Raw a couple of weeks ago. But I guess when Weezy did it he wasn't trying to show the fans he appreciates them.

She waited a whole year to claim all of this stuff.......

"According to the suit, Layne suffers from headaches, memory, loss, fatigue and neck and back pain."

Sounds like BS to me.

Dude...why all yall clowning ole girl like that.If she got trampled because he did something foolish,then he is at fault. Im not sure of the extent of any injuries but just think, you on the ground getting stepped on, and ran over by tons of people.I would be mad too.If that was a child who got trampled would anyone feel different? Im not sure what monetary amount is justified, but the lawsuit id valid and i support it.

1) how do you guys know her financial situation? for all we know, she could be RICH. Typically broke people are in the back of the concerts....unless this was a free one.

2) if I throw money at a group of 1st graders, don't you think they will act like beasts and probably injure each other??? it's like if you were to throw tons of medicine into a crowd of elderly people - they're going to be people who will literally FIGHT over this.

I'm sure this woman did not attend this concert to receive money. I'm sure Wayne didn't tell people "hey, step back if you don't want to get rained on." This is another case of when people do ignorant things in situations that don't call for it.

But before I end.....I must LAUGH at certain posters who feel that Wayne is/was helping people by throwing money at them. Not only is that degrading, but it's not really "helping". "Helping" people would be Wayne setting up a small scholarship for minorities or a contest where there are winners. No, Wayne HURT a woman by ignorantly throwing money into a crowd, knowing that people are going to fight over every single bill thrown. Don't act ignorant and try to defend someone just because you like them, it's idiotic.

I hope she doesn't get a million, but I hope she gets her medical bills paid for. And maybe an autographed cd. It should have been settled the moment she jumped out the hospital.

I got carpal tunnel syndrome AND whiplash from reading these comments and typing one in return.......Illseed, I'm suing AHH.com for a set of 28's and some Pull-Ups for my daughter! When will we as a society learn culpability? Wayne SHOULD pay her for doin' that dumb shit. Not a mill though. He should pay her doc bills and get a pound of Kush for the pain! I'm numb as fuck right now!

hotrock11 said:

I didn't even read Fly Boy's comments....but yours are laughable too. Look - you don't sue someone instantly. You can't just run into a court room and fill out the paper work (unless it's a small court and you have all the proof needed RIGHT THEN)

She more than likely went through the regular process - meet with a lawyer. Discuss your injuries. Get doctors to confirm those injuries. Build a lawsuit which you feel you can win. Inform the other side that there will potentially be a lawsuit.  And once again depending on the size and wait time of the court, being the process of suing. Typically one side will offer arbitration. (FYI, those court shows you see, that's arbitration basically).

How does those symptoms sound like BS????? THEY DON'T GROW OVERNIGHT! You don't get trampled over one day and not expect to possibly have an occasional headache the next week.

What More Can I say said:

I use to love allhiphop but since they added this feature and I see the type of people who visit the site and their menatlities I'm disgusted with it. You dudes validate all the criticism hip hop has been receiving lately. She a b**ch? Wow, how you know she wasn't seriously injured and got major medical expenses. How you know she didn't miss the rest of the semester because of the injury and had to make it up, that's doe. How you know she not reading this? You know what, yall niccas some b***s! Straight up, thats all yall understand is ignorance, that's why it's so much black on black crime cause cats do ish to force you to respond violently. I see a lot of you cats be on here all day, get a job then a life. 1 yourself suckas!!
