A judge is reportedly contemplating reducing T.I.<\/strong> and Tiny Harris<\/strong>\u2018 $71 million payout following their legal win against MGA Entertainment.

More Details On A Judge Reportedly Contemplating Reducing T.I. & Tiny Harris\u2019 $71M Win<\/h3>\n

On Monday, January 6, legal reporter Meghan Cuniff took to X<\/a>, formerly known as Twitter, to share an update on T.I. & Tiny Harris\u2019 cause against MGA. Furthermore, Cuniff posted a screenshot of a document featuring a tentative order \u201cregarding post-trial equitable issues.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cA jury ordered toymaker MGA pay T.I. and Tiny $71.4 million for LOL Surprise! Dolls that infringe the trade dress of <\/span>@Zonnique<\/span><\/strong>\u2018s OMG Girlz. Now a judge wants to axe $53.6 million in punitives, cutting verdict to $17.8 million, because there isn\u2019t enough evidence of bad faith,\u201d<\/strong> Cuniff wrote the caption of her tweet.<\/span><\/p>\n

In a subsequent update from Cuniff, she explained that the judge has not finalized their ruling and could \u201cchange his mind.\u201d<\/p>\n

Update: Judge Selna has not finalized his order! He might change his mind! This is why he issues *tentative* orders before hearings.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s a lot to contemplate. I want to put this down for a couple days, and I want to come back to it fresh from the top,\u201d the judge said.<\/p>\n
