The family of slain rapper Notorious B.I.G. suffered yet another setback in its battle to receive justice in his March 1997 unsolved murder. A judge on Tuesday dismissed a secondary wrongful death lawsuit filed by the family against the city of Los Angeles and former LAPD officer Rafael P鲥z.
U.S. District Judge Florence-Marie Cooper ruled that the family had not filed a claim within the designated timeframe, according to LA's Fox 11. She then granted a request made by the city and jailed former cop Rafael Perez to dismiss the case.
Perez had been accused by the family of conspiring with his ex-partner David Mack to carry out a murder hit on Biggie. In 2005 Judge Cooper declared a mistrial in the original suit filed by the rapper's family.
According to Fox 11, the parties involved in the still-pending primary suit agreed last week to enter into mediation. As a result, the trial, scheduled for February, will be postponed indefinitely.
