Jeezy Demands Jeannie Mai's Divorce Lawyers Be Disqualified as Battle Over Prenup Heats Up

As we previously reported, Mai recently argued she wasn't given enough time to review the prenup before she signed it. She asked the judge to hold off on enforcing it in the divorce. She said the prenup talks didn't start until five days before the wedding. Mai argued she didn't have time to comb through Jeezy's finances to ensure the prenup was fair.

Jeezy's motion read, "[Mai] questioned not only the financial disclosures made by [Jeezy] attached to the Prenuptial Agreement, but also the totality of the negotiating process, lamenting the length of time she was afforded in which to review the draft Prenuptial Agreement and the due diligence performed on her behalf."

Jeezy said Mai listed Kessler and Kirson as persons, "whom she knows or believes to have knowledge of facts supporting or tending to support her claims and contentions in this action and/or whom she intends to call as a witness in this matter."

The rapper said it's a problem that Kessler and Kirson were the ones who negotiated the prenup and agreed to the terms — but now are contesting it and claiming Mai wasn't given enough time.

The motion read, "Given the fact that [Mai] has questioned her ability to effectively review and negotiate the Prenuptial Agreement, which due diligence process would have been spearheaded on her behalf by Mr. Kessler and Mr. Kirson; and further, has questioned the financial disclosures of [Jeezy], which financial disclosures were reviewed by Mr. Kessler and Mr. Kirson; and then specifically mentioned the "compressed timeframe" of the overall negotiation process, Mr. Kessler and Mr. Kirson would presumably be offered by [Mai] to present testimony on her behalf in support of those alleged circumstances."

"In addition, and further underscoring the particularly problematic nature of Mr. Kessler and Mr. Kirson's involvement in this case given [Mai's] contentions, Mr. Kessler executed a "Certification of Attorney" at the time of the execution of the Prenuptial Agreement. That Certification stated, in part, that [Mai] was fully aware of the meaning and implications of the Prenuptial Agreement, and that all meaning and legal effect of the same was fully explained to her at that time," Jeezy's lawyer added.

He added, "[Mai's] present claims, therefore - e.g. that she was not afforded proper due diligence in the negotiation of the Prenuptial Agreement, and the fact that she now questions [Jeezy's] financial disclosures that she previously did not question, although she had every right to do so - squarely puts Mr. Kessler's prior Certification at issue before the Court in deciding whether to enforce the Prenuptial Agreement."

Jeezy said Kessler and Kirson cannot "simultaneously" be counsel for Mai AND a "necessary witness as to the veracity of a contested issue in the litigation." As a result, he asked that the lawyers be thrown out the case.

He said Mai will not be prejudiced if the court orders her lawyers to be disqualified. Jeezy said his ex previously had a different set of lawyers she planned to use and she could hire them to replace her current team.

Mai has yet to respond.
