50 cent wins in family court 50 Cent Wins in Family Court

The new list of Top Earning African American Stars by Forbes has been released, and 50 Cent made number 2, right behind Oprah Winfrey. 50 Cent made $150 million between June of 2007 and June of 2008, and because of recent family court ruling he won’t have to worry about losing some of that money to his ex girlfriend.

The mother of 50 Cent’s son and former girlfriend Shaniqua Tompkins, sued 50 Cent for $50 million claiming he promised to take care of her for the rest of his life. Well …

Justice Carol Edmead dismissed all 15 claims brought by Tompkins, with whom he has an 11-year-old son, calling the case “an unfortunate tale of a love relationship gone sour.”

“I’m very thankful for this decision,” 50 Cent said. “I knew that once the facts were heard that justice would prevail. I hope now that we can put this behind us and move forward with our lives.”

In addition to her claim that Fiddy promised to give her half his earnings for life, Tompkins also alleged that the 32-year-old rapper promised to give her his Dix Hills home—the same Long Island property that, unfortunately, burned down in May 2008. A month later, Tompkins filed for a restraining order against 50 Cent, so he responded by filing a $20 million defamation suit against his very estranged ex.

“Ms. Tompkins’ claims pertaining to a $50 million verbal contract were entirely frivolous,” said the rapper’s attorney, Brett Kimmel. “In dismissing the case before trial, the court is sending a clear message. This is a complete and total victory for 50.”

It’s a good thing 50 Cent didn’t marry that psycho. Only 7 more years until 50 Cent will be free of dealing with miss crazy.
