A judge dismissed Morgan Carey's defamation lawsuit against Mariah Carey, ruling that he failed to prove 'actual malice' in her memoir 'The Meaning of Mariah Carey'. The lawsuit, which began in 2021, alleged that Mariah defamed her brother in eight passages of her book. However, the judge focused on two passages, one suggesting Morgan sold drugs and another implying he had a criminal record. Mariah's attorney stated she is 'gratified' by the decision, while Morgan's attorney plans to appeal.
