Lil Wayne Loses Lawsuit Over Documentary, Ordered to Pay $2 Million

Lil Wayne

 Lil Wayne might win some, but he just lost one.  The YMCMB rapper has lost his case against Quincy Jones III over the documentary Tha Carter.

In addition to losing the suit, TMZ reports that Wayne lost the countersuit that QDIII filed against him.  The jury ordered Weezy to pay Quincy $2,195,000.  In his countersuit, Quincy claimed that Wayne prevented the release of the film and diminished his profit.

Wayne did not show up to court and missed his opportunity to testify because he was prohibited from flying due to his medical scare.  His lawyer had no choice but to show video of Wayne’s deposition, in which he refuses to answer the lawyer’s questions.
