Kanye West's lawyer is asking to be officially removed as his counsel after Ye cuts all contact and stops paying his legal fees...
Kanye West's lawyer asked for permission to officially drop his client in court after the rapper fired him and cut off all contact, In Touch can exclusively report.
According to court documents obtained by In Touch, the singer’s attorney, Brian Brumfield, filed a motion to be relieved as counsel for Kanye, 47.
Brian asked to be removed as Kanye’s representative in the lawsuit brought by Justin Poplawski, a man who claimed he asked for an autograph and ended up being assaulted. Kanye denied the claims.
In his motion, the lawyer said, “Defendant, Kanye West, terminated relationship on 6/21/2024. Defendant also will not speak to counsel and Defendant refuses to pay counsel as well.” A hearing has been set for later this month on the matter.
On top of Brian dropping out of the assault case, he asked to be removed from the separate case where Kanye was sued for $2 million by his former business partners at The Gap.
In addition, Kanye has several other pending lawsuits in Los Angeles Superior Court.
