Kevin Hart's Assistant Wants Off Extortion Lawsuit


Back in January comedian Kevin Hart filed a lawsuit against his former personal assistant, Miesha Shakes, and gossip vlogger Tasha K after accusing Tasha of trying to extort him [click here if you missed that]. 

Now Shakes is arguing she should be dismissed from the lawsuit...

Kevin Hart’s ex-assistant, Miesha Shakes, asked a Los Angeles judge to dismiss her from the comedian’s bombshell civil extortion lawsuit, In Touch can exclusively reveal.
According to court documents obtained by In Touch, Miesha denied all allegations of wrongdoing in the case brought by Kevin, 45.
Last year, the actor sued Miesha over an interview she did with YouTuber Tasha K.
Kevin claimed she said things that weren’t true along with things that she learned during her employment with him. Miesha worked for Kevin from 2017 to 2020.
Kevin said Miesha signed a non-disclosure agreement with him after leaving the position. The NDA said Miesha would not speak about Kevin or things she learned while around him.
She said Kevin, “failed to plead specifically which statements, they contend are false and defamatory or which facts [he] contend are true and an invasion of privacy.” Further, her lawyer said, “[Kevin’s] claims are barred in whole or in part because the statements challenged as false and defamatory, to the extent they can be determined, are substantially true.”
Miesha said the statements she made were not defamatory and “constitute expressions of protection opinion.” Further, she claimed she did not act with malice and did not cause Kevin any damage.
Regarding the NDA, her lawyer said, “[Kevin’s] claims are barred in whole or in part because the alleged contract(s) were invalid/illegal and cannot be enforced based on mental or physical incapacity which prevented [Miesha] from having the legal capacity to enter into or understand the alleged contract(s).”
Kevin's ex-assistant pleaded with the judge to dismiss her from the case immediately. A judge has yet to rule.
