Prince Has To Pay Up

Last year, video editor Ian C. Lewis sued Prince and his company, Paisley Park Enterprises.
The amount?
A total of $1,000,000 in exemplary damages.
Apparently, Lewis says Prince never paid him for editing work and never returned some of his equipment.
Just last month a trial was held that included testimony from Lewis saying he deserved to be paid.
But on Wednesday, a Los Angeles Superior Court Judge issued an order that said Prince would only have to pay about $58,000 to Lewis.
At least that’s nowhere close to the original $1 million he was asking for.
Lewis had also claimed that Prince and his company broke at $25,000 computer, but the judge denied that claim since no receipts were provided.
And in a weird turn, Prince’s attorneys withdrew from the case!
He wasn’t represented during the trial!!!
Taking that craziness into account, Prince must be quite thankful for the outcome!
