Meghann Cuniff, also known as Meg Thee Reporter on Black Twitter, recently broke down the latest update regarding Tasha K's substantial debt to Cardi B. In a Twitter thread, Cuniff detailed how the judge ruled that declaring bankruptcy won't absolve the vlogger from writing the checks, which total up to $4 million.
In June, Tasha K filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy in Florida, requesting to pay out 22 quarterly installments of $220,000, but the request was denied, as per Complex. To explain the details of the case, Cuniff posted screenshots of the official document.
"It confirms Tasha can't discharge her debt to Cardi in bankruptcy. She's on the hook for it and will stay on the hook for it," shared Cuniff. She also explained that the dispute is over $500k owed in punitive damages from Tasha K's company, Kebe Studios, which she apparently isn't fighting.
Cardi's legal team stated in their motion for partial summary judgment: “Defendant does not appear to dispute that the awards in the Amended Defamation Judgment made against her individually or jointly and severally are non-dischargeable.”
Cuniff explained that the original lawsuit filed by Cardi's attorneys showed that the blogger was "obsessed" with disparaging the rapper's character through her platform. She further elaborated that the hard part in a case like this isn't proving malice, it's getting jurors to agree that it warrants big damages.
The legal reporter shared that Tasha K's dismissal of the serious allegations over her gossip has led to her current predicament. As the legal dispute currently stands, the typical last line of defense to get rid of debts is no longer available for Tasha K. A pretrial conference has been set for Jan. 9 to decide whether or not Tasha K owes even more money to Cardi.
