Jeweler Seeks To Put T.I. On The Stand Over Dispute In Millions Of Gems

JEWELER WANTS T.I. IN COURT READ MORE!

(AllHipHop News) Atlanta rap star T.I. continues to be dogged by a lawsuit concerning an alleged unpaid bill for almost $1 million worth of jewelry.

Aydin & Co., which bills itself as a company that caters to celebrities, claims the rapper copped hundreds of thousands of dollars in jewelry from the years 2004-2012.

According to Bossip.com, T.I. had an open account with the company, but stopped paying the bill around 2013, prompting the lawsuit.

For his part, T.I. claims he doesn’t owe Aydin & Co. for any purchases prior to 2011, and that the goods in question were stolen in a 2016 burglary, so the rapper is working with his lawyers to have the case dismissed.

But in the latest legal wrangling, Aydin & Co. is asking a judge to force T.I. to testify about the jewelry and the cash in front of a jury, to sort the matter out.

Aydin & Co. is reportedly seeking a portion of the $775,000 in insurance money the rapper received for the stolen gems.
