50 Cent has been ordered to pay up after losing a lawsuit filed against him by a photographer. The order came down from the judge this week, after a nearly five-year drag out, ruling that Fif must cough up an undisclosed amount of cash to the plaintiff.
Jim Alcorn, then a New York Post deputy photo assignment editor, brought the suit against the rap mogul in 2003 after being knocked to the ground by Fif's body guards outside a jewelry shop when he tried to snap a few pictures of the rapper. Fifty had just bought an $18,000 watch, according to the New York Post.
Alcorn was rushed to the hospital where he was found to have neck and jaw injuries.
"A settlement was reached and all parties are satisfied," said Alcorn's lawyer, Sanford Rubenstein. A rep for Fif said, "It's a legal issue that's been settled."
