Court Orders Young Jeezy To Turn Over Bank Statements
October 26th, 2005 | By Administrator
Jay “Young Jeezy” Jenkins was ordered to turn over financial records of his earnings during a child support hearing on Tuesday (Oct. 25).
The Boyz N Da Hood former front man and Def Jam artist is having his earning scrutinized, as the mother of his 9 year-old son, Nicole Dykes, is stating that the rapper’s income has changed drastically since a 2001 child support ruling.
The original motion, which established the paternity of the child, set the child support for Jenkins to pay at $178.
Since that motion, the record label Jenkins? allegedly owns, Corporate Thugz Entertainment, has enjoyed success.
Jenkins was a member of BNDH when they released their self-titled debut on Bad Boy Entertainment, which landed near the top of the charts when it was released in June of 2005.
In July of 2005, Jenkins’ certified platinum debut, Let?s Get It: Thug Motivation 101 hit stores through a deal with the Island Def Jam Music Group, a unit of Universal Music Group.
In court depositions, Jenkins denied owing a mansion or a house, a car or jewelry, but Dykes? lawyers singled out his diamond incrusted “snowman” pendant, as well as the platinum success of his debut album and the success of BNDH?s self-titled debut album, which spawned the radio hit “Dem Boyz.”
Nicole Dykes is asking for more than $20,000 in expenses for clothing, transportation and housing to care for the child.
“The ultimate question is what is he making?” Superior Court Judge George Nunn asked on Tuesday (Oct. 25), during the proceedings.
The court concluded with the judge stating that if Jenkins can prove that he’s only living on a minimal income and driving an economy rental car, rulings would bear in his favor.
On the other hand, if he fails to disclose a full picture of his income, the judge warned that he will assess child support based on the rapper’s “lifestyle of a wealthy rock star.”
The judge ordered the rapper?s attorney to turn over his bank statements to Dykes? attorneys and told the lawyers to file subpoenas for other financial information from Corporate Thugs Entertainment by Friday (Oct. 28).
Diana Lynch, who is representing Jenkins in the case, is disputing the claim that he is the owner of Corporate Thugz Entertainment.
The follow up hearing to determine the amount of child support is scheduled for Nov. 29.
20,000 is why 2 much for cloths traportation ,and house ” i aint saying she gold digger”
but all that money aint for her son
It does’nt take $20,000 to take care of a child.
Young Jeezy “she a gold digger”.
Sometimes the judges on these cases really need to sit and think about shit. I aint sayin that his baby mama is wrong for asking for more money, but 20,000 a month is ridiculius. On the other hand, since Jezzy is makin all this money, then why aint he throwin mad loot to his shorty anyway. If I was the judge I would give that bitch, let me not call her that cause I dont know her, but I would give that gold digger about 2500 if that a month.
She’s a bitch, wat amount will she ask if Young Jeezy is no more making big money.Whoever she’s listening to is leading her to no good.20,000 is too much, but Jeezy gotta pay some aight.
Black men need to start taking care of their kids. If Jeezy was holding it down like he should be, his scrub ass wouldn’t be in court.
man fuck your baby mother see if u can get custody of your child cause bitches only see $$$$ and i bet if when u didnt have a deal she was all on your nut stack man fuck that trick ass bitch
NIGGA THAT’S JUST ONE OF THE CONSIQUENCES MEN FACE IN LIFE. WHICH BREAK THE WEAK, AND GIVE STRENGTH TO THE STRONG.
