50 Cent Faces Tia Kemp Court Delay Over Unserved Papers

50 Cent‘s bid for a permanent injunction against Tia Kemp stalled on November 3 because she had not been served, TMZ reported.

He joined by Zoom; Kemp was absent. His side accused her of avoiding service. 50 told the judge he did not want to pursue the matter but felt he had little choice.

The next hearing was set for December 7.

The hearing followed last week’s temporary injunction, which restricted Kemp’s contact with Sire, the rapper’s 14-year-old son with Daphne Joy. The Florida order required her to stay at least 500 feet from the teenager.

It also barred messages sent directly to him or through someone else, including social media posts aimed at him.

The temporary restrictions also covered guns and ammunition. Kemp was required to surrender any weapons after she was served. The earlier order set November 3 for a hearing on whether to impose longer restrictions.

50 had accused Kemp of putting his child into their online feud with posts about Sire’s development. On Instagram, he objected to using a claim about the boy’s health to mock him.

“This is the greatest example of bullying a minor saying he is on the spectrum,” he wrote. Kemp accused him of bullying her in her public response to his legal action.

The protective-order request was one part of a larger court fight. In a separate federal lawsuit, filed October 26 in Los Angeles, the rapper sought at least $6 million on Sire’s behalf. That complaint named the boy as S.J. and accused Kemp of defamation, invasion of privacy and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

His lawyers alleged Kemp invented a diagnosis and made sexually degrading claims about Sire’s mother. They also accused her of continuing to post after receiving a cease-and-desist letter.

“But autism is not shameful,” his lawyers wrote in the complaint.

Kemp’s comments about Sire came after 50 mocked her adult son, William Roberts III. Rick Ross is William’s father.

The dispute involved an alleged assault on William: 50 ridiculed him for seeking police help and again brought Ross’ former job as a correctional officer into their feud.

The Florida case concerned contact restrictions. The federal case sought money over the posts.
