It’s not very wise to film and post your crimes on Youtube if you don’t want evidence in a court of law. But The Game did just that. Now he's caught himself up in a lawsuit with rapper 40 Glocc after he filmed a street fight between him and 40 last year and posted it on Youtube. All sorts of evidence is available for the world to act as jury, and 40 is trying to retaliate where it hurts…in the pockets.
According to TMZ, Glocc is suing The Game for 4.5 million after a dispute outside a Hollywood Hills mansion back in July 2012, and the Game’s iPhone footage made it to the net. In the lawsuit, Glocc breaks down the damage like this:
— $500,000 in pain and suffering
— $500,000 in emotional distress
— $750,000 in lost earnings
— $2 million for punitive damages
— $25,000 in medical expenses

Here’s the footage. Think 40 Glocc has a case?
The Game and 40 Glocc have been at odds since 2012 when an altercation between the two ended in a physical fight. Now, rapper 40 Glocc is suing The Game for $4.5 million over this incident that was caught on video. This article will explore the details of this lawsuit and how it could affect both parties.
This feud has been simmering ever since their infamous brawl back in 2012 where things got heated quickly leading to a physical confrontation. Although they’ve maintained a respectful distance from each other since then, 40 Glocc is now fighting back with legal action against his former rival. He’s claiming damages stemming from the assault as well as defamation of character by The Game throughout the years following their dispute.
Both rappers are no strangers to controversy but this high-stakes case might be one of the biggest yet, with potentially millions of dollars on the line. Read on to find out more about why 40 Glocc is suing The Game and what kind of repercussions this suit may have for both artists.
Alleged Incident Details
Rapper 40 Glocc is suing The Game for an alleged assault that happened in 2012. According to reports, the incident occurred when the two had a heated exchange at a party. During their argument, The Game allegedly punched 40 Glocc multiple times and left him with injuries all over his face and body.
The legal team representing 40 Glocc has claimed that he suffered long-term physical and emotional damage from the attack as well as financial losses due to medical bills and lost wages. They are seeking $4.5 million in damages from The Game. In response, The Game’s lawyers deny any wrongdoing on behalf of their client, claiming that they dispute the allegations made by 40 Glocc’s legal team.
40 Glocc has also released video footage of the altercation which appears to show The Game punching him several times while he was laying on the ground defenseless. This evidence further supports his version of events leading up to and during the alleged assault, but it will be up to a jury or judge to decide whether it is enough to prove liability against The Game.
Legal Action & Outcome
The legal action taken by 40 Glocc has been ongoing for some time now. In 2014, he filed a lawsuit against The Game and his record label G-Unit Records seeking damages of $4.5 million. Since then, the case has gone back and forth in court with both sides providing evidence to support their claims.
The Game’s lawyers have argued that there was no malicious intent on behalf of their client during the altercation. They also claim that 40 Glocc provoked the fight which led to him being assaulted. Despite this defense, the video footage released by 40 Glocc appears to show otherwise.
At present, it is unclear how this case will end or what kind of outcome can be expected from it. Ultimately, it will be up to a judge or jury to decide whether The Game should be held liable for any damages caused as a result of the 2012 incident involving 40 Glocc.
Conclusion
In conclusion, rapper 40 Glocc’s lawsuit against The Game for a 2012 assault was unsuccessful. Despite claiming he suffered injuries from the attack and was seeking $4.5 million in damages, his case didn’t hold up in court.
The Game maintained that it had been an act of self-defense on his part after being assaulted by two members of 40 Glocc’s entourage first. While there is video evidence of the incident, he argued he stepped in to protect himself when surrounded by multiple men. Ultimately, this was enough to convince the jury to side with him rather than awarding any compensation to 40 Glocc.
Though the outcome wasn’t favorable for 40 Glocc, it highlights how important it is to think before acting during heated exchanges as even if you are proven right legally, you can still end up losing financially due to legal fees and other costs associated with taking someone to court.
