Lil Wayne Hit With Another Judgment, Owes Pyrotechnics Company $100,000
Lil Wayne has been slapped with another court judgment over unpaid bills.
TMZ reports the hip-hop star has been ordered to fork over $96,000 to Pyrotek Special Effects, a pyrotechnics company that supplied him with fireworks during his 2013 tour.
The company insists that it supplied Wayne with 200 tracer comets, 92 silver gerbs, 2 white flashes with a bang, 36 propane tanks and 30 pounds of exploding powder.
All the trouble began after Wayne allegedly failed to pay the bill, and the company promptly took legal action. In time, the two sides reached a settlement agreement, but after the rapper again reneged, the company went back to court and secured the judgment.
The court order comes days after authorities raided Wayne's Miami home seeking to seize $2 million worth of art as part of another judgment recently rendered against the rapper for an unpaid jet rental.
Several media outlets previously reported he owed at least that amount to Signature Group, a private jet leasing company whose service he once frequently relied on. Just over a year ago, company officials sued the Young Money Entertainment honcho for $1 million for unpaid services, which has since increased to $1.8 million, plus $200,000 in legal fees.
Miami Dade County police descended on Wayne's estate armed with a court order that empowered deputies to "break the locks of the house and doors if necessary" to gain entry. The rapper was reported to be in LA at the time of the raid, and soon after was spied at the Ace of Diamonds strip club.
The raid came just hours after Wayne announced the pending release of his new mixtape "No Ceilings 2," which is scheduled for some time around Thanksgiving.
