Jay-Z’s legal troubles continue, as the Brooklyn emcee has been sued by the Workers Compensation Board of New York.
TMZ.com reports that the suit alleges that Jay failed to pay worker’s compensation insurance for three months in 2009.
The insurance, which was supposed to cover domestic employees in the emcee’s home, was allegedly properly paid after the three months.
The Workers Compensation Board sued Jay-Z for $18,000 in fines, though sources reportedly say that the figure is the result of a clerical error.
