Cardi B Files Lawsuit Against Tasha K's Husband for Asset Concealment
Cardi B has filed a new lawsuit against Tasha K's husband, Cheickna Kebe, alleging that he helped shield millions of dollars from a court judgment. This legal action comes after Cardi previously won a defamation case against Tasha K, who was found guilty of making false claims about the rapper. The lawsuit claims that Tasha and her husband engaged in various tactics to move money and property to avoid paying the nearly $4 million judgment.
Cardi's latest legal filing accuses Cheickna Kebe of assisting in concealing Tasha K's assets following the court ruling in 2022. The rapper claims that the couple engaged in fraudulent activities, such as creating new business arrangements, transferring assets between companies, and changing ownership of property in Georgia. Despite Cardi's request to delay the proceedings due to Tasha K's bankruptcy case, the lawsuit was filed to meet legal deadlines related to the alleged asset transfers.
The lawsuit focuses on allegations that Cheickna Kebe played a role in moving and concealing Tasha K's assets after Cardi's victory in the defamation case. Cardi initially sued Tasha in 2019 for defamation, citing false and defamatory claims made in online videos. Following a jury's decision in Cardi's favor in 2022, the rapper claims that Tasha and Kebe took steps to prevent her from collecting the awarded damages.
One of the key claims in the lawsuit involves the formation of Yelen Entertainment, LLC, by Kebe, which reportedly received assets from Tasha's company, Kebe Studios, after the defamation case. The complaint alleges that these transfers left Kebe Studios with no assets to pay the judgment, while Yelen Entertainment now controls Tasha K's social media accounts and revenue streams. Cardi's legal team argues that these actions were intended to hinder the rapper's ability to access the awarded funds.
The second part of Cardi's lawsuit addresses additional efforts to protect Tasha K's personal finances from collection attempts. Allegations include rerouting Tasha's earnings through Yelen's accounts, removing her name from bank accounts, and transferring property in Georgia to Kebe. Court documents reportedly show that these actions were taken to avoid garnishment and prevent Tasha from paying the judgment.
Cardi's legal team is seeking to void the transfer of assets to Yelen Entertainment and the Georgia property deal, citing Kebe's statements acknowledging that these moves were made to help Tasha avoid paying the judgment. The lawsuit aims to hold Tasha K and Cheickna Kebe accountable for their alleged efforts to shield assets and evade financial obligations.
In conclusion, Cardi B's ongoing legal battle with Tasha K has escalated with a new lawsuit accusing Tasha's husband of aiding in concealing assets to avoid paying a court judgment. The rapper alleges that Tasha and her husband engaged in fraudulent activities to prevent her from collecting the damages awarded in the defamation case. Cardi's legal team is pursuing legal action to hold Tasha K and Cheickna Kebe accountable for their alleged attempts to evade financial responsibilities.
