Written by . Published: January 14 2015
Rapper Tyga is reportedly facing a $10,000 fine for missing a court hearing relating to a legal fight over his clothing line.
The hip-hop star is battling a former business partner who sued the rapper last year (14) for allegedly failing to pay him for creating designs for his Last Kings fashion brand.
He had been due to attend a court-ordered settlement conference
with Glennon Marrero in a bid to thrash out a deal, but Marrero has
lodged legal documents claiming Tyga, real name Michael
Nguyen-Stevenson, failed to appear and suggests he should be
slapped with a fine of around $10,000, according to
