A woman named Lydia Harris originally stated that way back in 1989 when Death Row was just at its inception, she and her husband Michael invested in the record label. but after the cash flow began to come in, Harris said Suge edged her out of the company.
She took Suge and Death Row to court and was awarded $107 million, but back in September 2019, both Harris and Suge asked that the judgment be voided. According to Harris, she was used as a pawn by her “former attorneys, the bankruptcy trustees, and others to use her to wrongfully obtain the judgment,” reports NBC Los Angeles.
Harris’s former attorneys filed their own paperwork asserting that the judgment should carry on as is, and a judge agreed with them, especially because Harris has already reportedly pocketed a million dollars. The woman’s new attorney insists that she’s not received any money. The former attorneys are reportedly set to receive approximately 40 percent of the judgment under the agreement Harris made with them.
