Azealia Banks’ racism claim against her ex-manager has been stricken from her lawsuit, but Banks can keep mentions of his past disputes with Backstreet Boys and Kelly Clarkson in her complaint
Passin argued the issue would certainly become relevant if Banks needs to prove “malice, oppression or fraud” on the part of Kwatinetz to collect possible punitive damages if she prevails.
The judge said her decision at this stage of the legal battle doesn’t preclude Banks from attempting to raise the claim again: “I don’t see anywhere in my tentative where I said that the issue of racism can’t be raised for punitive damages.” It claims Kwatinetz engaged in an “egregious breach of fiduciary duty” when he signed on as Banks’ manager and then brokered a 2014 deal in which his music label Prospect Park received a 15-year license to exploit herAccording to Banks’ filing, Prospect Park collected album revenues of nearly $1.5 million and then deducted “outrageous” costs and expenses totaling nearly $1.3 million. She claims she’s only been paid $15,345.
In her split decision Thursday, Judge Orozco decided that while the two paragraphs about “racism” and another paragraph accusing Kwatinetz of being a prolific litigant had to go, the vast majority of the material Kwatinetz sought to strike could remain, including allegations related to the Backstreet Boys and Kelly Clarkson as well as claims Kwatinetz manipulated Banks with “sleepovers,” gifts, professions of love and other “charming” behavior when he was 49 years old and she was 23.
