Kodak Black was hit with more bad news while behind bars after a concert promoter used the opportunity to serve him with legal papers.

According to court documents obtained by the Blast, promoter Nicholas Fitts wasted no time after Kodak was arrested, in hiring a process server to head over to the jail.

Only days after the rapper entered jail the concert promoter was able to serve Kodak with the lawsuit, which was filed last month.

Fitts is accusing Kodak of blowing off multiple concerts despite having a signed deal.

The suit claims Kodak was contractually bound to perform on March 3, 2017 in New York, but he never showed up. The rapper then agreed to do a “makeup date” in April 2017 but then again didn't show up.

Fitts says he reluctantly agreed to give him another shot and scheduled a third show, but Kodak once again blew it off.

He is seeking in excess of $500,000 in damages.

The rapper is currently locked up in FDC Miami while battling prosecutors who do not want the rapper to bond out of custody.

Kodak was arrested at Rolling Loud Music Festival by local police and agents from the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and U.S. Marshals.

He was also indicted by a grand jury for trying to illegally purchase firearms and is facing 10 years in prison.
