Ja Rule Gets Dismissed from $100 Million Fyre Festival Lawsuit

According to reports, Ja Rule’s name has been cleared in the Fyre Festival lawsuit that was brought against Billy McFarland and others.

In the past week, a judge sided with Ja Rule in the $100 million civil lawsuit, saying, “This Court rejected plaintiffs’ conclusory assertions that they relied on defendants’ representations about the Festival as insufficient to state a claim for fraud. In the case of Atkins, plaintiffs alleged an actionable false statement, but failed to allege that they acted in reliance thereon."

The rapper’s attorney issued a statement, saying, “In July, the Court dismissed all Fyre Festival claims against Mr. Atkins. After this loss, plaintiffs’ law firm Geragos & Geragos appealed that decision. Today, the Court denied their appeal. This ruling is nothing short of a total vindication of Mr. Atkins. -Ryan Hayden Smith attorney for Jeffrey Atkins p/k/a Ja Rule."
