Megan Thee Stallion is pressing forward with her high-profile defamation lawsuit, and her target, blogger Milagro Gramz, is now scrambling to defend herself, again without a lawyer.
According to All Hip-Hop, Gramz, who is accused of launching a smear campaign on behalf of Tory Lanez, has just lost her second attorney in less than a month. Michael Hayden, with California non-profit Unite the People Inc., filed to withdraw from the case, citing that they couldn’t afford local Florida counsel.
“Financial difficulties have arisen with Unite the People Inc. and [Milagro Gramz], making it unreasonably difficult for Unite the People Inc. to continue to effectively represent [Milagro Gramz] as Pro Hac Vice counsel,” Hayden wrote in court documents.
“Unite the People currently has two licensed attorneys, who specialize in criminal law, who handle large caseloads…Without local Florida counsel to act as lead counsel, Unite the People cannot continue…or it would suffer extreme financial burden (likely ruin),” he added.
Gramz’s previous Florida attorney, Michael A. Pancier, also withdrew earlier in May over unpaid fees and irreconcilable differences.
Megan’s lawsuit claims Gramz spread false stories about her, including accusations of perjury, alcoholism, and mental health issues. It also alleges Gramz distributed a deepfake pornographic video of the rapper.
Now representing herself, Gramz is asking for public support. Her GiveSendGo campaign, “Save New Media,” aims to raise $100,000 to cover her legal costs.
She says she’s being unfairly targeted for being an independent voice. Megan has not spoken out publicly about this matter.
