Ye's Legal Mess Deepens | Hip-Hop News
Description
Ye’s legal woes just got a whole lot more expensive as a handyman lawsuit explodes into a multi-million-dollar battle. Tony Saxon, who worked on Ye’s Malibu mansion in 2021, won $140K in damages—but his lawyers are now seeking over $1.2M in fees for their tireless work. The case revealed shocking claims: forced floor sleeping, dangerous tasks, and ignored safety violations. While the jury agreed on some labor code violations, Ye’s defense was costly, fueling the fees. Now, Ye’s team is suing Saxon back, claiming a $1.8M lien was improperly placed. This isn’t an isolated incident—it’s part of a growing pattern: lawsuits from ex-employees, Donda Academy fallout, and shattered brand deals—all adding up to a legal avalanche.
