Jim sued Offset over an alleged incident that took place at MedMen LAX, a weed dispensary in March 2025. The guard said the rapper showed up at the dispensary and became “hostile” and “verbally confrontational” after being asked to show ID.

In the suit, Jim claimed Offset struck him in the face, and others in his group also attacked him. He claimed he was hospitalized and continues to suffer from headaches and neck pain. He’s seeking unspecified damages for assault, battery, and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

As TMZ first reported, Offset was charged with a misdemeanor count of simple battery. An arrest warrant was recalled after the rapper’s lawyer showed up to court to plead not guilty.
