50 Cent Wins in Family Court

Hollywood Grind — Sun, 08 Feb 2009 05:42:31 +0000

The new list of Top Earning African American Stars by Forbes has been released, and 50 Cent made number 2, right behind Oprah Winfrey. 50 Cent made $150 million between June of 2007 and June of 2008, and because of recent family court ruling he won’t have to worry about losing some of that money to his ex girlfriend.

The mother of 50 Cent’s son and former girlfriend Shaniqua Tompkins, sued 50 Cent for $50 million claiming he promised to take care of her for the rest of his life. Well …

Justice Carol Edmead dismissed all 15 claims brought by Tompkins, with whom he has an 11-year-old son, calling the case "an unfortunate tale of a love relationship gone sour."

"I’m very thankful for this decision," 50 Cent said. "I knew that once the facts were heard that justice would prevail. I hope now that we can put this behind us and move forward with our lives."

In addition to her claim that Fiddy promised to give her half his earnings for life, Tompkins also alleged that the 32-year-old rapper promised to give her his Dix Hills home—the same Long Island property that, unfortunately, burned down in May 2008. A month later, Tompkins filed for a restraining order against 50 Cent, so he responded by filing a $20 million defamation suit against his very estranged ex.

"Ms. Tompkins’ claims pertaining to a $50 million verbal contract were entirely frivolous," said the rapper’s attorney, Brett Kimmel. "In dismissing the case before trial, the court is sending a clear message. This is a complete and total victory for 50."

It’s a good thing 50 Cent didn’t marry that psycho. Only 7 more years until 50 Cent will be free of dealing with miss crazy.

50 Cent Wins Visitation with His Son in Court

Hollywood Grind — Thu, 17 Jul 2008 19:23:03 +0000

A Long Island judge granted 50 Cent, aka Curtis Jackson, an unrestricted visit from August 3-12 with his son Marquise. Before the judge even considered visitation he had both 50 Cent and Shaniqua Tomkins drug tested.

50 Cent was clean.

Shaniqua tested positive … for cough syrup *cough cough*.

Shaniqua complained that 50 Cent won’t let her drive the Land Rover SUV parked at 50 Cent’s house that burned to the ground, and has guards there to prevent her from using it. 50 Cent denied the allegation.

The couple are back in court on September 15.

50 Cent is doing a great job keeping a level head through this difficulty, but Shaniqua can’t keep her mouth shut. On the way into court she broke a heal talking crap about 50 Cent to the media.

50 Cent and Shaniqua Tompkins Still at War

Hollywood Grind — Sat, 21 Jun 2008 19:34:56 +0000

Yesterday 50 Cent, aka Curtis Jackson, had Shaniqua Tompkins served with papers for his $20 million defamation lawsuit on outside a Suffolk County, N.Y., court. The suit was filed in response to offensive and false statements made by Shaniqua.

Despite the defamation lawsuit, Tompkins repeated the remarks in court to get a judge to grant a temporary restraining order against 50 Cent. Tompkins asked the judge to keep 50 Cent away from her, and their son, despite Tompkins angrily demanding 50 Cent call and visit their son after a fire burned the house down that she was living in.

50 Cent’s attorney also filed a visitation petition alleging that since the fire, Tompkins has been deliberately preventing the rapper from seeing his son in part by not revealing their new place of residence, in direct violation of a court order from last June. The attorney said:

"She’s completely cut him off from his son. The trouble in the relationship is driven by the anger and hostility that’s coming from her."

Tompkins says she won’t reveal where she and Marquise are staying to Jackson, because the fire (she claims was set by 50 Cent) "was a threat on my life. This is my child’s life. This is our lives."

HG readers overwhelmingly voted in a recent poll they believe Tompkins set the fire that burned the house she was living in down. The home was owned by 50 Cent, and was at a legal dispute where Tompkins claimed 50 Cent gave it to her as a gift.

Both 50 Cent and Tompkins need counseling. The courts would serve the child best by ordering the counseling rather than issuing restraining orders to keep the fight going.

50 Cent Sues Shaniqua Tomkins

Hollywood Grind — Thu, 19 Jun 2008 15:18:37 +0000

50 Cent, aka Curtis Jackson, has filed a defamation lawsuit against his ex Shaniqua Tomkins for falsely claiming he burned down his own house that Tomkins was living in. The New York Daily News reports:

"There comes a point where you can no longer sit on your hands and listen to her spread these falsehoods," 50’s lawyer, Brett Kimmel, tells us. "Besides hurting his reputation, they have a damaging impact on their son."

The hip-hop king (real name, Curtis Jackson) charges that since the fire, Tompkins has refused to let him see Marquise or tell him where he’s living.

Another Denise Richards and Charlie Sheen.

It would make more sense though, for 50 Cent to sue Tomkins to see his son, which is what I would care about more than defamation of character.

50 Cent Cannot Sell Burned Down House

Hollywood Grind — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 18:47:21 +0000

A judge today ruled that 50 Cent, aka Curtis Jackson, cannot sell the $2 million house on Long Island that burned to the ground, at least not until the cause of the fire is determined. The insurance money for the home will go into a trust until his the case in which Shaniqua Tompkins claim on the house is also decided.

Outside the courthouse, Tompkins only commented that the house was hers, but this time she didn’t accuse Jackson of burning down the house. We think Tomkins, or her boyfriend, did it.

Shaniqua Tompkins and the Gas Can

Hollywood Grind — Sun, 01 Jun 2008 19:02:10 +0000

Shaniqua Tompkins was back at the home that burned to the ground, to pick up some belongings. While there she once again said 50 Cent, aka Curtis Jackson, needs to call his 10 year-old son to see how he is.

Tompkins accused 50 Cent of setting the fire. Police found a 5-gallon gas container on the property shortly after the fire erupted. Earlier in the week, Shaniqua’s new boyfriend, who recently moved into the house that burned, got into a fight with 50 Cent’s bodyguards at a lawyers office, and trashed the office.

The fire is still under investigation. I suspect Tompkins of setting the fire. If 50 Cent had set the fire he wouldn’t have deliberately left a gas container behind as evidence.

50 Cent Denies Tompkins Allegations

Hollywood Grind — Sat, 31 May 2008 15:58:50 +0000

Shaniqua Tompkins suggested yesterday that 50 Cent, aka Curtis Jackson, burned down his house with her living in it to try to kill her, so 50 cent’s lawyer Brett Kimmel released the following statement:

"Any suggestion that Mr. Jackson had anything whatsoever to do with the fire at his home is outrageous and offensive."

With allegations like this Tompkins better pray investigators don’t point the finger at her. Greed is ugly.

Shaniqua Tompkins Claims 50 Cent Tried to Kill Her

Hollywood Grind — Fri, 30 May 2008 18:53:58 +0000

A very upset Shaniqua Tompkins gave a street side statement that 50 Cent allegedly tried to kill her by burning down his house, with her and their son inside. Tompkins said 50 Cent, aka Curtis Jackson, didn’t even call to check on his son. Click here to see the video. Tompkins also said earlier that she heard someone break into the house about 4 am, then the fire broke out about 5 am, burning the house to the ground.

I can hardly wait to find out who done it.

50 Cent Says He Was Not at the Burning House

Hollywood Grind — Fri, 30 May 2008 16:46:58 +0000

Earlier reports today said six people were taken to the hospital afer suffering smoke inhalation at 50 Cent’s home that burned this morning. 50 Cent released this statement:

"Informed this morning while filming a new motion picture on location in Louisiana, Curtis Jackson expressed deep concern over this fire at his property. He is extremely thankful that everyone including his son, Marquise, escaped the burning house safely. He is confident that authorities will be conducting a thorough investigation of the incident and is eager to review their findings."

According to the statement 50 Cent makes the point he wasn’t at the home when it burned. 50 Cent, aka Curtis Jackson, and Shaniqua Tompkins, were caught on video on Monday fighting on a New York sidewalk after she was deposed at his lawyer’s office. Fire investigators also said the fire was suspicious because of its intensity.

Tompkins is suing 50 Cent for ownership of the house, and the fight just got really heated.
