Dame Dash has discovered that he no longer has an attorney, as his longtime lawyer has officially resigned over unpaid legal fees.
According to court documents obtained by HipHopDX, Felton T. Newell and Justin H. Sanders, Esqs., of Sanders Roberts LLP, had their motions to withdraw as the ex-Roc-A-Fella exec’s legal representation granted as of March 29, and, as of Friday (April 5), they informed all parties involved in the matter.
Newell and Sanders claim that they withdrew as Dash’s legal counsel due to the embattled executive’s “breach of contractual obligations to the firm,” meaning that Dash had not paid them for their services.
Damon Dash now has until April 29 to find new counsel to represent him. If he fails to do so, he will be permitted to represent himself, though this is highly unusual at the federal level.
