Milagro Cooper, the media commentator known professionally as Milagro Gramz, has filed a motion requesting a federal judge delay enforcement of a $75,000 judgment she owes to rapper Megan Thee Stallion. The request comes as Cooper pursues an appeal of the lower court ruling, arguing that immediate payment would impose severe financial hardship on her household.
According to court documents obtained by TMZ, Cooper is seeking to postpone payment while she appeals the ruling, asserting there remain significant unresolved issues in the case that warrant higher court review. Central to her motion is the claim that she lacks the financial resources to satisfy the judgment immediately or post a full supersedeas bond.
Cooper describes herself as a self-employed media commentator and content creator whose monthly income fluctuates considerably. In her filing, she states she does not possess substantial liquid assets and emphasizes her role in supporting her household and two minor children. The motion contends that forcing immediate payment would place undue strain on her family's finances.
The judgment stems from a federal jury verdict that largely favored Megan Thee Stallion in her lawsuit against Cooper. The case centered on posts Cooper made related to Tory Lanez and the aftermath of the rapper's shooting case. The legal battle has continued through multiple post-trial motions and appeals since the initial verdict.
While the jury awarded Megan Thee Stallion $75,000 in damages, that figure may not represent the final amount Cooper owes. Under Florida law, she could also be required to pay the rapper's attorney fees, potentially pushing the total obligation far beyond the initial judgment amount.
Cooper acknowledges in her filing that Megan Thee Stallion's legal team opposes the request to delay payment. The judge has yet to rule on whether Cooper will be granted relief from immediate payment obligations while her appeal proceeds through the court system.
The outcome of this motion will determine whether Cooper must begin satisfying the judgment now or whether she will receive temporary reprieve until appellate courts have an opportunity to review the case. For a self-employed content creator with variable income, the distinction could prove financially significant as the legal proceedings continue.
