Lawyers for American rapper, Meek Mill, have made a second petition to have Judge Genece Brinkley taken off the case. According to Mill’s attorneys, Brinkley has ‘exceeded the judicial role by sometimes essentially acting as a prosecutor and, at other times, taking an unusual interest in, and trying to inject herself into, [Meek Mill’s] personal and professional life.‘

Allegations of a relationship between Brinkley, Meek’s manager and a felon surfaced last November prompted the rapper’s attorneys to make the first petition. The petition was, however, denied by Pennsylvania Supreme Court.

The musician’s lawyers have made it known that they believe his case ‘involves a pattern of judicial (mis)conduct that has prejudiced the rights of a probationer and threatens to undermine the public’s confidence in the integrity of the judicial system.’
Their petition might, however, not be in vain as Philadelphia District Attorney, Larry Krasner, has said that ‘there is a strong showing of likelihood’ that Meek’s case will be resolved.
