DaniLeigh’s Brother Struggles to Serve DaBaby Over 2022 Brawl, Seeks Permission to Notify Rapper Via Newspaper
Rapper DaBaby finds himself at the center of legal drama as the brother of his ex-girlfriend, DaniLeigh, attempts to serve him with legal papers related to a brawl that occurred in a Los Angeles bowling alley in 2022. Despite efforts by DaniLeigh’s brother, Brandon Bills, to initiate legal proceedings against DaBaby, the rapper has managed to evade being served with the lawsuit papers, leading to a rather unconventional approach to notification.
According to court documents obtained by RadarOnline.com, Brandon Bills has faced significant challenges in serving DaBaby personally. Previous attempts, including hiring a private investigator and trying multiple addresses in North Carolina and California, have been unsuccessful. Bills is now seeking permission from the court to publish a notice in a local newspaper as an alternative method of serving DaBaby with the lawsuit.
The lawsuit stems from an incident at a Los Angeles bowling alley where DaBaby and his associates allegedly got into a physical altercation with Brandon Bills. Video footage obtained by TMZ showed the two individuals fighting on the bowling lanes, with Bills accusing DaBaby of initiating the confrontation. The LAPD launched an investigation into DaBaby for assault with a deadly weapon, although the case eventually fell apart due to Bills’ refusal to cooperate with law enforcement.
In response to the lawsuit, DaBaby claimed that his actions during the altercation were in self-defense and denied instigating the fight. However, Bills filed a civil lawsuit seeking unspecified damages, alleging physical and psychological harm as a result of DaBaby’s actions.
This legal saga adds to DaBaby’s existing legal troubles, including a separate lawsuit filed by a homeowner named Gary Pager. Pager accused DaBaby of breaking rental rules and assaulting him during a music video shoot at his LA home.
Despite the legal challenges, DaBaby continues to release new music, with recent singles garnering millions of streams on platforms like Spotify. However, the rapper’s ability to avoid being served with legal papers has raised questions about the effectiveness of traditional legal procedures in high-profile cases.
As the legal battle unfolds, the question remains whether the court will approve Brandon Bills’ unconventional request to serve DaBaby via a local newspaper, further highlighting the complexities of celebrity legal disputes and the lengths individuals will go to seek justice.
