Mama June: Michael’s Mom Legal Action Prompts Shannon To File A Response!
Mama June Shannon is about to face the lawsuit again with Kylee’s grandmother. This week, on Thursday, it was reported that Tanya Cardwell, Michael’s mom, allegedly sued Shannon for defamation. She claimed that June had allegedly defamed her, so her legal action against her is justified.
In a week in late December, Shannon answered Tanya with a response lawsuit. According to reports by The Ashley, Michael has Kylee’s sole custody after his ex-wife, Anna, succumbed to cancer. Despite not being a biological father to Kaitlyn, he tried to win custody of her, too. Since he lost it, the recent defamation lawsuit from his mom could stem from it.
Regardless, June noted and claimed in her response suit that she didn’t do anything to defame her co-granny. She wrote in the official papers, “I haven’t done anything I’m being accused of.” She insinuated that Tanya had taken the legal route to create trouble for her because she was unhappy with Michael losing Kaitlyn’s custody.
June added to her statements, “I want to countersue for my time and pain and suffering this is going to cause, plus court cost.” Meanwhile, Tanya has also supposedly asked Shannon for the damage amount. According to Elle Belle, the official court hearing is on 14 January 2025. However, due to the parties’ inappropriate dress code, it was dissolved.
