Lawsuit claims businessman embezzled money, even hired rapper Flo Rida for party

A lawsuit filed on Monday in federal court claims that concert promotions executive Chris Janese embezzled more than $57,000 from his company, G&R Live, spending some it on hiring rapper Flo Rida and more.

According to The Detroit News, the lawsuit claims that Janese used $27,000 out of the $57,000 he embezzled to hire Florida’s own Flo Rida for his wife, Kim Janese’s private 50th birthday party back in March in California.

Chris is denying the accusations, texting The News, that read “I had a fantastic 13+ years with G&R and they are wonderful people. I’m saddened that it has come to this”, he added, “The last interaction I had before departing was them trying to get me to sign a 3 year extension on my contract. I was not open to that path and so we parted ways.”

H even said that he hasn’t been served with any legal documents pertaining to this lawsuit.

The lawsuit also claims that Chris charged the company for having employees perform personal services for him during business hours, used money for personal travel costs, instructed G&R Live employees to spend over 100 hours to prepare for his wife’s birthday party and charged them $7,500 for sound and lighting services.

Wait, there’s more..

The lawsuit also claims that he spent $6,641 on a private jet to go to a personal charity and many more charges.

The company wants Chris Janese to pay them more than $75,000, on top of attorney fees.
