While In Bankruptcy, Death Row Records Is Sued By Cousin Of Snoop Dog
Nate Dogg who is the cousin of the famous rapper Snoop Dogg filed a lawsuit against Suge Knight's Death Row Records for more than $10 million in royalties. Nathan Hale, aka Nate Dogg who has recorded with Eminem, 50 Cent, Tupac Shakur, and Ludacris, lodged an adversary proceeding attached to Knight's bankruptcy case.
Knight filed the Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition with the U.S. District Court in Los Angeles last year but did not name Hale as a creditor. Hale is seeking legal judgment declaring that Knight's debt to the rapper cannot be discharged in the bankruptcy since Hale is not listed as a creditor.
