Nicki Minaj’s Mother Files $150 Million Lawsuit Against Man Charged In Dad’s Hit-And-Run
Nicki Minaj’s mother, Carol Miraj, has filed a $150 million lawsuit against Charles Polevich, the man who killed the rapper’s father in a hit-and-run collision.
Her attorney, Ben Crump, gave all the details on Twitter. He wrote, “Paul Napoli and I have filed a $150 million lawsuit in the hit-and-run death of Robert Maraj, @NICKIMINAJ‘s father. Charles Polevich was not only irresponsible & negligent in hitting Maraj, but was more concerned about running away and hiding than seeking help.”
He added, “Polevich’s behavior was criminal, cowardly, and immoral. We will hold him responsible for his reckless actions that led to Robert Maraj’s death!”

Per Complex, Charles Polevich’s lawyer has responded to the lawsuit.
He stated, “Mr. Polevich has expressed empathy and condolences to the Maraj family. While the civil suit is not unexpected, the criminal charges pending against Mr. Polevich have no bearing on the civil case. It has yet to be determined whether there was any negligence involved in the accident or the degrees of any negligence. I will add that the amount demanded is shocking to say the least and I don’t believe is in any way reasonable.”
