    A woman who accused Cardi B of assault and battery has been denied a second trial

    In September, the WAP hitmaker - whose real name is Belcalis Almanzar - was found not liable in a civil lawsuit brought against her by security guard Emani Ellis, who took action in 2020 over an alleged incident two years prior, and she secured another victory on Friday (05.12.25) when a judge found no basis to overturn the original verdict.


    Emani's legal team had argued the jurors were "intimidated" by Cardi after seeing her throw a pen outside the courthouse shortly before the verdict was returned, and requested two witnesses be barred for late disclosure.
