Bosses at concert promotions company Delmont Promotions sued the Shawty star in 2013, claiming he pulled out of a show in 2008 due to a scheduling conflict. Officials at the company estimated they lost $750,000 (GBP468,750) in profits and asked a judge to grant a default judgment after the 39 year old failed to respond to the suit.

In August (15), they were awarded $504,000 (GBP315,000) plus interest, but the ruling has since been dismissed after Plies argued he was unaware of the lawsuit because he was never served legal papers. He also claimed the plaintiff's lawyer lied when he told the court Plies had been served.

Plies maintains he never signed a contract with the promoter.
