*The woman who won a $5 million judgment against 50 Cent is asking that her invasion-of-privacy case be allowed to move forward despite the rapper filing for bankruptcy.
The attorney for Lastonia Leviston filed a motion asking a U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Connecticut for relief from an automatic stay issued as a result of Monday’s bankruptcy filing, reports The AP.
The motion accuses the rapper, whose real name is Curtis Jackson III, of filing for Chapter 11 protection to evade testifying earlier in the day in the New York civil case, where a jury was to consider punitive damages.
The same jury ruled Friday that Jackson must pay Leviston after releasing without her permission a sexually explicit video she made with her boyfriend.
