T.I. no longer has to worry about the lawsuit filed by his former restaurant employees who accused him of fraud because the suit has been dismissed

According to court documents obtained by The Blast, the rapper and his former employees at the closed ATL restaurant, Scales 925, informed the court that the lawsuit against T.I. and his business partner is being dropped.

The case will officially be closed as a result and T.I. notes that the ex-employees were promised nothing as consideration for dropping the case.
