Money woes are still looming over Birdman. A Dade County Circuit Court judge, Judge Rodney Smith, recently rejected Birdman’s motion to have a $300,000 lawsuit thrown out. The lawsuit was brought on by Javier Nuno, a former security guard at Birdman’s $15 million Palm Island estate. Nuno is suing for unpaid wages. He claims that he “worked like a dog” and clocked in close to 70 hours on some weeks. Alan Soven, Birdman’s attorney, says Nuno was never under payroll of Birdman. Soven also states that Nuno lived at the mansion for two years after Birdman purchased the estate, but the Cash Money CEO didn’t even know that Nuno was living on the premises. “You can’t serve a security guard,” Birdman’s attorney Alan Soven said. “You can’t serve the maid or the gardener. You have to serve someone who lives at the house, and I can promise you the security guard doesn’t live in Bryan’s mansion.” Apparently, Nuno’s initial paperwork from the process server was the inaccurate. According to Birdman, Nuno’s hiring process was executed improperly.
