NeNe Leakes Sued by Photographer for Non-Payment


Last month NeNe Leakes dropped her racial discrimination lawsuit against Bravo after accusing them of forcing her out of the Real Housewives of Atlanta [click here if you missed that]. 

Now NeNe is dealing with another lawsuit, but this time she's the one being sued...

According to court documents obtained by RadarOnline.com, the company Photography By Ace, LLC filed a statement of claim against NeNe (real name: Linnethia Leakes) and her business, The Linnethia Lounge, in Gwinnett County Court.
In the legal paperwork, Photography by Ace said NeNe and her club had invoiced — along with sent reminders — in an attempt to collect payment for work done.
The company said it had contacted the defendants on multiple occasions via email requesting payment to be made. Photography by Ace said NeNe has been refusing payment and “no longer is communicating on this matter.”
The company said NeNe claimed the photographer had never worked for her or her lounge and that she has never paid me in the past for my services. The photographer wrote in her filing, “I have complete invoices that show otherwise.”
The photographer attached two invoices that were addressed to NeNe. The first invoice was for $500 and listed work done on October 30 and 31, 2021 for a brunch and a Falcons Halloween party.
The second invoice was for work done on November 12 and 13, 2021. The total was $500.
The case was filed on July 7 and NeNe was served with the legal documents days later. The process server said they waited for the ex-Bravo star when she returned home to her $1.8 million condo — which she purchased two months after her husband Gregg’s death.
The server said they approached NeNe as she exited her Blue 2020 Rolls Royce. “I delivered the documents to Linnethia Leakes with identity confirmed by subject saying yes when named. The individual accepted service with direct delivery.”
