While people were offering up prayers for Lil Wayne [---really??] who was headed to court expecting to begin a 12 month bid in Riker’s Island today, his sentencing has been postponed until March 2nd as announced by to Mack Maine via Twitter.
According to MTV News, a cracked tooth and subsequent dental surgery is the cause…
The rapper was scheduled to be formally sentenced by a judge and begin serving his one-year term stemming from a 2007 arrest that resulted in a guilty plea in October for attempted weapons possession.
The Cash Money MC arrived shortly after 2 p.m. with his label heads Birdman and Slim. He quietly entered the courtroom as photographers snapped pictures from the hallway. Wayne wore a navy coat and black-framed glasses, and he sat still while his lawyer Stacey Richman spoke.
She informed the judge that she sent a notification to the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office that the rapper is suffering from a cracked tooth and would need to postpone his sentence. The judge agreed and ruled to reschedule for March 2.
The surgery is scheduled for Feb. 12th however the judge says this is the last adjournment for Weezy.
