TONY YAYO CASE IS PUSHED BACK UNTIL JULY!

Yesterday, G-Unit rapper Tony Yayo made his first appearance in court to fight allegations that he backhanded and verbally assaulted a 14-year-old last month.

Yayo's case has been adjourned until July 24, while the parties wait for a decision on defense motions that are expected at the end of May.

The charges Yayo faces include one count of misdemeanor assault and one count of endangering the welfare of a minor.

Yayo and his defense adamantly deny the allegations that he smacked the 14-year-old son of long time rival Jimmy "Henchmen" Rosemond on Mar. 20 in New York.

"After a detailed investigation, I stand here to steadfastly and unequivocally state that Tony Yayo did not slap anyone,” Tony Yayo’s attorney Scott E. Leemon told in a statement. “The allegations made against him are false and I am sure when the People finish their investigation they will have no alternative but to come to the same conclusion--Yayo is being falsely accused.”
