Rapper, ex are due back in family court in custody dispute.
A rapper’s ongoing battle with his ex over the couple’s son has led to another date in family court. Eleven-year-old Marquise’s dad 50 Cent reportedly wants visitation every other weekend and one month during the summer. The performer recently re-connected with Marquise after weeks of a lengthy separation and such high-profile incidents as the house fire that Marquise’s mom accused Fiddy of orchestrating. He denied any involvement. Fiddy’s lawyer Brett Kimmel says the rapper’s visitation request “maximizes the time the child can spend with his father while remaining sensitive to the child’s own schedule.” The matter is due back in court on Monday.

Sonja Norwood wants $120,000 from Kardashian clan

Manager and mom of singer Brandy has been given a February court date in her suit against her son Ray J’s sex tape co-star. Kim Kardashian and three of her siblings allegedly made $120,000 in unauthorized credit card purchases in 2006 and 2007 when Kardashian worked as a stylist for Brandy and Ray J. Norwood wants every dime of the cash reimbursed, plus 10 percent interest. So it would seem that Kardashian’s appearance in the “leaked” sex video with R&B’s biggest annoyance was on the house.
Rapper sues child’s mom for defamation

Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson wants two things: to see his son without interference and to shut up the boy’s mom. The rapper has sued Shaniqua Tompkins for allegedly violating their custody agreement for Marquise Jackson. Fiddy alleges in the suit that Tompkins has prevented him from speaking with the boy and “made it practically impossible” for him to communicate or spend time with Marquise. Fiddy has also sued Tompkins in Suffolk County Court for defamation of character, seeking an end to Tompkins’ claims that he’s responsible for burning her house down recently. “Besides hurting his reputation, the rumors have had a damaging impact on their son,” says a legal rep for the rapper. “There comes a point where you can no longer sit on your hands and listen to her spread these falsehoods.”
