Megan Thee Stallion Lawsuit: Gag Order Put in Place Over Fears Social Media Posts Could ‘Incite Violence’
Megan Thee Stallion’s defamation lawsuit against Milagro Gramz over the Tory Lanez shooting will be subject to a gag order over "derogatory" posts.
In a ruling issued Tuesday (June 10), Magistrate Judge Lisette M. Reid settled the spat by simply ordering both sides to stop discussing the case publicly — a decision that came with a reminder that “the First Amendment right to free speech is not absolute.” Lanez (Daystar Peterson) was convicted in December 2022 on three felony counts over the 2020 shooting, in which he shot at the feet of Megan during an argument following a pool party at Kylie Jenner’s house in the Hollywood Hills. Denying a request by Gramz to dismiss the lawsuit, the judge said Megan had made a “compelling case” that the blogger had defamed her by claiming the star lied during Lanez’s trial and that she was “mentally retarded.”
