Kevin Hart Headed Back To Court Over $1 Million Lawsuit

Kevin Hart’s ex-business partners are dragging the comedian back to court in their $1 million battle.

According to court documents obtained by The Blast, Hart’s former partners, iGo Marketing & Entertainment, have filed an appeal in their ongoing legal dispute.

iGo Marketing & Entertainment sued Hart accusing him of owing them commissions. A judge recently sided with them and ordered Hart to pay up $701,593.73.

The company believed the $701k judgment was improperly calculated. iGo Marketing demanded the judgment be increased to $952,793.54.

Hart asked the judge to deny the $1 million request. A judge agreed and denied iGo’s motion to increase the amount. The case was closed days later.

Back in 2017, iGo Marketing & Entertainment sued Hart claiming they entered into a deal with him to negotiate marketing and celebrity tie-in deals on his behalf. iGo has worked with Jerry Seinfeld, Jamie Foxx, John Legend and many others.

They claim their deal with Hart called for them to get paid 15% on any deal they negotiated for Hart.

In the lawsuit, iGo claimed they secured numerous deals for Hart over the years with the likes of Miller-Coors, Coke-Zero, Vitamin Water, Electronic Arts, two deals with Caesars Entertainment, the Cosmopolitan Hotel and a deal with Verizon Wireless.

They claim Hart always made good on the deal … that is, until it came to a deal with Rally Healthcare in 2015.
