New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Cardi B might face jail time if she doesn't show to a court hearing scheduled for Friday. The rapper did not appear in arraignment court Monday for her alleged involvement in a fight in a New York strip club in August.
A spokesperson for the Queens District Attorney's Office told that, while no warrant has been issued, one may be if she fails to appear later this week.
The "Bodak Yellow" performer turned herself into New York Police in October. She was charged with counts of reckless endangerment and assault.
"Cardi B ordered and committed violent assaults against my clients, and is being called to justice for her crimes. Apparently, she thinks her celebrity status puts her above the law, since she has bragged to multiple people and on social media that she orchestrated these vicious attacks," Tacopina said. "But reality is setting in, as justice does not care whether her name is Cardi B or Carly B, and she will now answer for her crimes."
Cardi B's court date on Friday isn't her only commitment, she is also expected to perform at New York's Jingle Ball concert at Madison Square Garden Friday night.
