A new court fight has surfaced between Atlanta rapper Future, whose real name is Nayvadius Wilburn, and his ex-girlfriend Brittni Mealy, requests the rap star be jailed over financial disagreements for their son, Prince.
According to court filings first reported by TMZ, Mealy has asked a judge to hold the rapper in contempt over what she claims is a failure to comply with a 2023 court order. The directive allegedly required Future to secure a $500,000 life insurance policy tied to their 12-year-old child.
The filing states that the policy must designate Mealy as trustee for Prince. The structure would ensure financial protection for the child in the event of Future’s death.
Mealy claims the requirement remains unmet. In the filing, she argues the rapper failed to obtain the mandated policy despite the court’s directive. As a result, she contends he has violated the order and must face legal consequences.
Her motion seeks enforcement through contempt sanctions. Specifically, Mealy asked the court to hold Future in contempt and compel compliance with the life insurance requirement. She also requested incarceration until the issue is resolved.

According to the filing, Mealy maintains the court must intervene to protect the child’s financial future. “The order required a $500,000 life insurance policy naming Brittni Mealy as trustee for Prince,” the filing states.
Mealy argues the obligation remains unfulfilled and requires immediate correction through judicial action.
Legal analysts note that life insurance provisions frequently appear in family court settlements involving high-income parents. Courts often require such policies to guarantee financial stability for children if a supporting parent dies.
These provisions protect minors by ensuring funds remain available for housing, education, and basic care. Future has not publicly addressed the new allegations.
The Grammy-winning rapper remains one of Atlanta’s most influential hip-hop figures. His catalog includes numerous chart-topping albums and collaborations that shaped modern trap music.
Still, the current dispute underscores how family law obligations can collide with celebrity status. The court will now determine whether Future violated the 2023 order and whether contempt penalties are warranted.
