In 2022, Williams sued the 'Screwed Up' singer for alleged intentional infliction of emotional distress, battery and assault.
Signature Flight Support and Young Money Entertainment are the other defendants in the lawsuit filed by Williams.
Williams claimed in his legal filing that he was flying with the rapper on June 10, 2022.
He alleged that Wayne began arguing with the pilot and Williams tried to intervene in the argument by putting his arms between the musician and the pilot.
However, Wayne was infuriated by this and allegedly punched him. "The combination of a closed fist and the numerous rings and large jewelry on the hands of [Wayne] caused great harm to [Williams]," read the lawsuit.
Williams then left the plane and sought medical attention at a hospital.
Andrew Williams claimed Lil Wayne terminated him via mail
The former assistant stated that following the incident, he received an email from the Grammy award winner's camp that did not mention the alleged assault but demanded he return a Bluetooth speaker and a backpack.
Williams added that the email mentioned that he was terminated.
In the lawsuit, he demanded Wayne help him pay the medical expenses and required unspecified damages for his alleged physical and emotional suffering.
"Lil Wayne was willful and malicious and was intended to oppress and cause injury to [Williams]. [Williams] is therefore entitled to an award of punitive damages," read the lawsuit.
However, the rapper has vehemently denied any allegations of wrongdoing and his legal team demanded the lawsuit be dismissed from the court.
The lawyers argued Wayne acted in self-defense and the assistant had not sustained any injuries as a result of Wayne's actions.
The rapper who denied his former assistant was wrongfully terminated saying the dismissal was entirely appropriate also accused Williams of failing to "exercise reasonable care and diligence" to prevent any alleged damages.
