StarPulse.com is reporting that the Philadelphia-based legal firm Blank Rome, who represented and aided Mos Def in his 2006 divorce with his then-wife Maria Yepes, has filed a lawsuit against the rapper/actor. The lawsuit is stated to amount to $60,000, which includes unpaid fees and retainers for which Blank Rome alleges Mos Def has not paid off.
This is the second month in a row that Mos has found himself in legal trouble. An arrest warrant was put out for him in November stemming from a run-in with photographer Volker Correll in August. He claims that Mos Def grabbed a lens from around his neck, and proceeded to smash it on the pavement before leaving with the camera in hand. Correll filed felony robbery and malicious destruction of private property charges against Mos Def.
