Fairly than heed the Contempt Warning and retrace his actions, he issued a Press Launch in which he argued that the Injunction experienced expired.
The Injunction was to halt factors right until the listening to of our Motion trying to get to freeze pursuits until a selection on his position (no matter if he had discharged his obligations to us or not) is taken. It barred him from performing or releasing tracks for the time being’.

The application (now set for 8th August) has been served on him in the Punch as purchased by the Court. Two, considering the fact that we will not permit him to continue on to mock the Court Purchase we have applied and acquired a new Injunction to cease his steps to defend the Contempt Scenario.

Make sure you bear in thoughts that our primary circumstance in Court boils down to no matter if Runtown has discharged his financial obligations to us and delivered just one Album to us as spelt out in our Agreement.
