There may now be legal repercussions for Lil Wayne after he put his hands on a club bouncer, last month.
TMZ has received word that Arsineh Aghakhani, a lawyer representing the bouncer, is in the process of filing a lawsuit against Lil Wayne. The lawsuit being filed against the rapper is for battery.
“The bouncer’s attorney — Arsineh Aghakhani from Los Angeles City Law — says she’s preparing the lawsuit against Lil Wayne for battery after her client claims the rapper attacked him while working the door last month at Hyde nightclub for a BET Awards after-party,” TMZ reports.
It was previously reported that Wayne and crew were irate after the bouncer denied them entry into Hyde, a nightclub in Hollywood, California, during BET Awards weekend.
