Tory Lanez wants his voice heard.
Singer “Luv” filed a motion on Tuesday to change the terms of a protection order that prevents him from publicly commenting on his ongoing case with Megan Thee Stallion.
In court documents provided to page Six, Lanez’s legal team claims that the current order – issued on November 18 – is “significantly detrimental” to the 28-year-old and “endangers his right to a fair and just procedure.”
Megan, 25, is not subject to the clauses of the protection court order, and Lanez’s lawyers highlighted in the new motion how vocal she was about this case on social networks.
Earlier this month, rapper “Body” appeared to beat Lanez, whose real name is Daystar Peterson, on Twitter, after inaccurate reports claiming that the charges against him were dropped were published online.
“Bitch, you shot me AND my story doesn’t change and B – H WANT YOU IN PRISON,” she wrote on Twitter.
Megan had previously called Lanez during the summer, almost a month after the alleged shooting incident.
“Yes, this non-conservative shot me,” she claimed on Instagram Live. “You shot me and made your advertiser and your people go to these blogs online and st. Stop lying. Why lie? “
“Unlike Mr. Peterson’s silence, Megan.” [Pete] he wrote and posted six tweets for 5.6 million followers on Twitter in quick succession, “Lanez’s lawyers said in a motion on Tuesday, adding that the current order barred rapper” Tell Him “from commenting on” inflammatory statements. “
Prior to the protection order, Lanez maintained his innocence on social media and in his music.
He said in a speech on Instagram in October: “He knows what happened, I know what happened and we know that what you say and [that] the alleged things and alleged accusations of my name are [sic] they are not true. ”
In September, he also released a new song called “Money Over Fallouts”, in which he sang: “How fk shoot you in the leg, you don’t hit bones or tendons?”
A source told Page Six that Lanez’s team wants the protection order to be lifted so that “he can freely discuss what his lawyer [has been] dat. “
According to court documents, Lanez’s lawyers claim that there is new evidence to support the rapper’s innocence and that they are supposed to “contradict” Megan’s statements.
“This evidence – including the remnants of the shooting involving others – is mitigating, if not exculpatory, and casts serious doubt on Megan’s allegations. [Pete]”, It is mentioned in documents. “In addition to scientific evidence, people are aware, witnesses who have observed the alleged events also provide information that involves others.”
In November, Lanez pleaded not guilty to every offense of assault with a semi-automatic firearm and carrying a loaded and unregistered firearm in a vehicle. He will be sentenced to 22 years and eight months in prison. A court hearing is scheduled for February 25.
Megan’s lawyer, Alex Spiro, told Page Six exclusively on Tuesday: “The motion did not mention that there was any residue of gunfire on his hands or that he sent him a text message” Sorry? “I did not have the opportunity to read it. ”
Lanez’s representative did not immediately return the request for comments.
