Less than two hours after the parties finished their closing arguments, a federal jury in the United States District Court for the Central District of California returned a complete defense verdict for MGA Entertainment against Rapper Clifford “T.I.” Harris’ claims.

O.M.G. dolls. Shortly before the jury returned its verdict, they asked the judge if they were allowed to award MGA its attorneys’ fees.
