Tory Lanez filed a complaint to the State Bar of California on his former attorney Shawn Holley.
He claims that Holley failed to properly represent him in the Megan Thee Stallion shooting case because she has ties to Roc Nation, Megan's management company that's owned by Jay-Z.
Lanez is pointing to a show on Hulu called Reasonable Doubt, named after Jay-Z's debut album. Holley co-produces the show, which is loosely based on her life as an attorney for the stars.
Megan and Beyoncé's "Savage Remix" played in the second season of the show, as did a song by Holley's daughter Nayanna, who used to sing backup for Beyoncé.
On top of all that, Lanez said that Holley stopped representing him five days before he was found guilty of shooting Megan, despite paying her between $200 and $300k.
The jailed rapper believes that she wanted him to take a plea deal based on Roc Nation's wishes and when he didn't she stopped representing him. Some might remember Lanez's father, Sonstar Peterson, blaming Jay-Z for his son's guilty verdict.
But Holley says Lanez's claims are bogus and denied having anything to do with Roc Nation.

"I have never had business ties to Roc Nation and Roc Nation has nothing to do with the television show Reasonable Doubt, which I co-produce," she said, according to reporter Loren Lorosa. "Mr. Peterson made these claims over a year ago to the State Bar, which rejected them and promptly closed the matter."
Lanez was sentenced to 10 years in prison for shooting Megan.
