A man is moving closer to securing a $1.2 million judgment against Quavo following a legal battle stemming from an altercation in Las Vegas. According to court documents obtained by XXL, Antonio Lamar Henry filed paperwork on May 22 in the Superior Court of Fulton County, Georgia, seeking to enforce a monetary judgment against the rapper, born Quavious Marshall.
The legal action follows a September 2024 decision by a Las Vegas jury, which ordered Quavo to pay Henry $682,000 in compensatory and punitive damages. The lawsuit originated from a 2018 incident at the Encore Hotel & Casino, where Henry, then working as a valet, alleged that he suffered both emotional and physical injuries after being slapped by the Migos artist. Throughout the proceedings, the Atlanta rapper has consistently denied any wrongdoing, with his legal team characterizing the claims as an attempt to treat him like a “hip-hop lotto ticket” while arguing that no evidence of physical injury was provided.
Enforcement of the Nevada Judgment
According to the latest filings, a Nevada court finalized the judgment on March 21, 2025. The ruling establishes that Quavo, along with co-defendants Romondo Arkell Brooks and Lance Lavar Limerick, share joint liability for the payment. Henry is now petitioning the Georgia court to recognize the Nevada ruling under the Uniform Enforcement of Foreign Judgments Act.
The requested total of $1,198,772.68 is broken down as follows:
- $509,468.78 in compensatory damages
- $150,000.00 in punitive damages
- $169,443.56 in pre-judgment interest
- $274,164.50 in legal fees
- $95,695.84 in court-related expenses
Representatives for both Quavo and Antonio Henry have been contacted for comment regarding the ongoing enforcement efforts.
