Workers’ compensation judgment against rapper Jay-Z to be vacated

Posted on January 5th, 2012

The rapper and hip hop mogul Jay-Z has been freed of an $18,000 workers compensation judgment in New York.

The New York Post reports that Shawn Carter, 42, Jay-Zs birth name, failed to pay workers compensation insurance between Sept. 30 and Dec. 30, 2009, for staff that worked at his office on Hudson Street in New York City.

A judgment was issued against him in November, 2011 after a complaint was filed in March 2011.

“After consulting with the employer’s insurer, the board expects this matter to be resolved in the next few days, resulting in the judgment being vacated,” Brian Keegan, a spokesman for the New York State’s Workers’ Compensation Board, told the newspaper Dec. 30, 2011.
