A judge dismissed the complaint after ruling that the security guard and his lawyer willfully failed to comply with court orders <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
\n\tA judge has ordered a security guard and his lawyer to pay Lil Wayne<\/a> $29,225, plus the Grammy-winning musician\u2019s legal fees, after their lawsuit accusing the \u201cLollipop\u201d rapper of striking the man while holding a gun<\/a> was thrown out.<\/p>\n \n\tAccording to a judgment signed Wednesday and obtained by Rolling Stone<\/em>, plaintiff Christian Carlos and his lawyer are jointly liable for the monetary sanctions and legal costs after the court ruled in April that they repeatedly disobeyed orders. The judge subsequently terminated the lawsuit and scrapped a trial set for August.<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cThe court is granting terminating sanctions because plaintiff willfully refused to comply with three discovery orders over nearly ten months, made affirmative misrepresentations to the court about compliance, and has still provided no responses as of April 21, 2026,\u201d the judge said in a recent ruling. Lawyers for Lil Wayne and Carlos did not respond to Rolling Stone<\/em>\u2018s requests for comment on Thursday.<\/p>\n \n\tCarlos filed his lawsuit in December 2023. The security staffer claimed the musician, born Dwayne Michael Carter Jr., pointed a semiautomatic rifle at him \u201cas a threat\u201d and punched him in the ear with a fist during an incident at the rapper\u2019s residence in Hidden Hills, California.<\/p>\n \n\t\u201cPlaintiff suffered severe emotional distress, requiring him to seek mental health treatment for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) stemming directly from this incident,\u201d the lawsuit said. Carlos claimed he racked up medical expenses from the alleged assault and battery and lost both wages and earning capacity.<\/p>\n
