RAPPER JAY-Z FILES RESTRAINING ORDER

Chronicmagazine.com...Hip-Hop News on Jay-Z, Diddy, 50 Cent & More: "Rapper Jay-Z filed a last minute temporary restraining order in Federal court on Friday (Feb. 16) to shut down a Las Vegas party that was using his likeness to promote their event.

Club Ice advertised for the party Saturday night using Jay-Z's image and the names of his companies, Roc-A-Fella and Rocawear. However Jay-Z alleges he has nothing to do with the party and actually hosted his own party Saturday night at Tao at the Venetian hotel.

When Jay-Z arrived in Las Vegas for NBA All-Star Weekend and saw the promotions around town (which are also on the site AllStarParty2007.com), he contacted his attorneys in New York who then contacted Robert Reynolds, an attorney in Nevada. Reynolds informed TMZ reporters he was able to file the temporary restraining order just before the courts closed and that a process server went down to the club tonight and served them with the injunction."
