Cardi B was dealing with exhausting legal matters in the days before she went into labor.
According to court documents obtained by Breaking Celebrity News, the Bodak Yellow rapper was ordered to appear for a Zoom conference on August 20.
She had asked the court for permission to skip out on the meeting and let her lawyers handle it. The judge denied her motion despite her being in the final month of her pregnancy.
Cardi is currently being sued for $5 million by a man named Kevin Michael Brophy Jr. in federal court. He accused her of using his photo on her mixtape cover without permission.
Brophy claims the cover featured him performing oral sex on Cardi as she sat in the back of a limo. He says she never asked for permission to use it and it caused him personal harm.
In a recently filed court order, it revealed Cardi showed up to the hearing and tried to hash out her differences with Brophy for 5 hours. However, the two were unable to reach a settlement.
