Tasha K is demanding a new trial after losing a defamation lawsuit filed against her by Cardi B. Tasha's lawyer said, "[Cardi B’s] claims were based on six statements, which she alleged were Defamatory." The lawyer continued, "However, Plaintiff failed to prove, with clear and convincing evidence, that the Defendants published any of those six statements with actual malice. The gist of Plaintiff’s evidence consisted of her testimony that those six statements were not true." Tasha's lawyer added, "The district court’s erroneous exclusion of Plaintiff’s character evidence resulted in a very lopsided presentation of evidence to the jury. Because the jury did not get to learn the type of conduct Plaintiff engages in or who the Plaintiff truly is as a person, the jury returned a general verdict for the Plaintiff, against both Defendants."
