Plies hit with $10 million lawsuit

Plies aka Algernod Washington, Slip-N-Slide Records and a Gainesville, Florida nightclub were all named in a lawsuit that alleges negligence against the parties in a 2006 shooting at the club in which five people were injured, according to the Gainesville Sun. The suit which has been filed on behalf of five Gainesville residents is seeking $10 Million. Plies and three other people were arrested on July 2, 2006, after members of Plies entourage began firing guns around a sold out crowd of around 1000 people. Plies later plead no contest to a misdemeanor charge of possession of a concealed weapon. Plies attorney Robert Rush said he is yet to see the suit, but that his client is in now way responsible for the shooting. â
