50 isn't letting up on any of his adversaries.

If there's one thing we've learned about 50 Cent recently, it's that he doesn't give up. Just ask anyone that the "In Da Club" rapper has decided to target on Instagram. His most notable foe has been Diddy, who he's been posting about near constantly since the lawsuit Cassie filed against him was made public last year. Unsurprisingly, that included a lot of talk following recent moments like the Lil Rod lawsuit and the federal raids on his properties.

Speaking of property, that's at the center of a new legal development 50 is pursuing. He's seeking retribution from a former employee who admitted to financial misconduct that resulted in embezzling money from the rapper's spirits company Sire. According to All Hip Hop, the battle has been taken to a Connecticut bankruptcy court. The former employee is seeking bankruptcy protections to help keep some of his assets exempt from being turned over to repay Sire Spirits. But 50, or more specifically his lawyers, aren't backing down from a fight. Check out the full legal details below.
