Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 70801, member: 636"] A judge has sanctioned Tory Lanez with a $20,000 penalty after the incarcerated artist declined to respond to three questions during a deposition related to Megan Thee Stallion's defamation lawsuit against blogger Milagro Gramz. The court found Lanez in contempt for refusing to address inquiries about his relationship with Gramz and whether he communicated with her through text messages or Instagram. His legal representative also faces contempt charges for enabling the obstruction. The ruling mandates that jurors in the upcoming defamation trial will be notified of Lanez's refusal to cooperate during questioning. Megan Thee Stallion alleges that Gramz disseminated false claims about her following the 2020 shooting incident that caused the rapper's injuries, with Lanez allegedly providing support for the misinformation campaign. The artist's silence during the deposition may undermine his standing when proceedings commence. [/QUOTE]
