Remy is trying to fight her conviction for busting shots into her close friend:

Attorneys for Remy Ma filed a motion in a Manhattan Court Room this week appealing the verdict handed down against the rapper in March of this year. In court documents, the lawyers argue that errors committed by the judge presiding over the 15 day trial may have lead to an inaccurate verdict. At issue specifically, were the judge’s instructions regarding the testimony of Remy’s victim, Makeda Smith-Barnes, who was shot by the rapper outside a New York City nightclub during an argument over $3000.  Fisher was barred by the court from arguing that the shooting in fact occurred during a struggle for the .45 caliber automatic handgun which, allegedly resulted in Smith-Barnes being shot in the abdomen at close range. In addition, Remy’s lawyers argue that by including a previous unrelated violent incident at the Player’s Club in the indictment of Remy Ma, Assistant District Attorney Michael McIntosh effectively managed to taint the jury, predisposing them to issue a guilty verdict. Remy, born Remy Smith, is currently serving an eight year prison term at the Bedford Hills Correctional facility, a maximum security prison just north of New York City. The rapper was convicted of first degree assault, criminal possession of a weapon and attempted coercion. She will be eligible for parole in September 2014.

Sounds like she is paying the lawyers to find reasons to release her…and saying the judge messed up is a crock of sh*t.

After all the hootenanny that went down with Remy Ma and her supposed Riker’s Island jailhouse marriage to Papoose, there has been confirmation that the two have indeed tied the knot.

Remy Ma’s victim, Makeda Barnes-Joseph, is on a mission to get paid:

“In a lawsuit filed in the Bronx, Makeda Barnes-Joseph doesn’t just go after Remy, she wants coin from Remy’s music label and even the pizza joint where she and Remy were boozing before she got shot. She claims that Universal Music received ‘financial profit and economic benefit from the unlawful, violent and anti-social conduct’ of Ma. As for The Pizza Bar, Makeda says they kept serving Remy even though she was ‘visibly’ [drunk]“.

This chick has lost her mind. She’s suing every last one of them ho’s she believes is associated with getting capped. We’re surprised that she didn’t include the gun and bullet manufacturers in the lawsuit. It’s pathetic what people will do to get a dollar.

Remy Ma and Papoose’s nuptials were called off yesterday thanks to Pap and his hair brain schemes:

“A wedding was scheduled today and a visitor to that wedding service was found to be in possession of jail contraband so the wedding was canceled. The key that was found today easily opened handcuffs that we and other law enforcement officials use. Now the 29-year-old Brooklyn-born Papoose – real name Shamele Mackie – won’t be able to see his fiancée until November.

The visitor was sanctioned by not being able to visit Rikers Island again for six months.He was asked to leave. Papoose was not charged after he voluntarily surrendered the key to authorities. He was quickly ushered out of the jail and never got to enter the prison island’s Rose M. Singer chapel in which the two were set to say their “I do’s.”

How stupid is he to think that that would actually work? What a dumbass…

*Update: Remy Ma has been sentenced to 8 years in prison:

“Remy Ma was sentenced to eight years in prison today by a Manhattan Supreme Court judge for shooting her friend Makeda Barnes-Joseph after the two argued over money after leaving a party.”

Now let’s see how eager Papoose will be to reschedule that wedding. SMH.

Jailhouse wedding bells will ring today. This crazy broad takes that “ball and chain” ish to a whole new level.

Remy Ma speaks out from the pen:

“‘It’s nothing. I’m in here chillin’ – eating mad mackerel,’ the rapper joked, quickly changing tone to a more serious nature. ‘I’m in the cell 23 hours a day – max security. It’s real crazy over here. You got certain officers that are extra nice and you got the ones that are extra not nice. I be telling them it’s not my fault that my commissary is more than their salary.’”

‘Don’t be mistaken about a jury that was not my peers. There was no tan [or] dark brown, Black – nothing – on that jury. It’s a whole conspiracy against rappers right now so I already knew what it was,’ she said.

The rapper insisted she would return for another interview, because she has ‘wild phone time.’ It appeared that her fiancé rapper Papoose was on the call as well.”

No doubt she and Papoose are working on those jailhouse wedding arrangements. Don’t be surprised to find that Remy will emerge new and improved after her stint in jail. Looks like she’s taking a page from Foxy – a little time in lock down seems to be working wonders for her.
