As Meek Mill continues to fight for justice and freedom in his longstanding probation violation case, the Philly-bred rapper is taking on the controversial judge that sent him to jail for the last few months.
In court documents obtained by The @Blast, Meek and his legal team say the judge has been using an attorney to leak statements to the press; statements that would get her in trouble if she made herself. As a result, Meek wants the judge off the case, once and for all.

According to Meek’s team, Brinkley “retained a lawyer to make public statements on her behalf concerning her intended future judicial action in a pending case, which Judge Brinkley would be forbidden to do herself personally,” referencing Brinkley’s attorney’s “troubling” suggestion that she would not honor the prosecutor’s request/suggestion to throw out the case.

In fact, Meek’s team claims Brinkley has also “interjected herself into the routine matter of bail supervision, including on day-to-day notice to the judge of [Meek’s] plans and whereabouts,” adding that such actions by a judge are out of the ordinary.

As a result, Meek Mill wants a new judge, especially since Brinkley refuses to step down herself.
