Megan Thee Stallion Seeks Permanent Federal Cyberstalking Injunction Against Milagro Cooper

Her lawyers say only a court order can halt harassment that continued after the jury verdict.

Overview

  • Megan Thee Stallion’s team filed the motion in Miami federal court seeking a no-contact order, 500-foot stay-away limits, a 1,000-foot buffer at performances, and a ban on promoting or sharing an AI-altered explicit video.
  • Quinn Emanuel describes the request as a first-of-its-kind effort in Florida federal court to secure a permanent cyberstalking injunction following a jury trial.
  • The filing cites new online posts, an Instagram Live, and a press release that her attorneys say misrepresented the verdict and perpetuated harassment.
  • Megan’s lawyers argue monetary relief is inadequate because Cooper has claimed to be judgment-proof, making injunctive measures the only effective protection.
  • After trial, Judge Cecilia M. Altonaga dismissed the defamation count under Florida’s media-notice statute, deemed Cooper a media defendant, and entered a $59,000 judgment on the remaining counts; the court has not ruled on the new injunction.
