Janney Marin, known professionally as "Chiquis," filed a defamation lawsuit against her uncle, Juan Rivera Saavedra, seeking over a million dollars in damages. This high-profile case, filed in the Eleventh Judicial Circuit Court in Miami-Dade County, Florida, has sparked widespread media attention, as it brings up problems within the Rivera family.
At the heart of the lawsuit, which Latin Times had access to, is a dispute over the song "Abeja Reina" ("Queen Bee"). Chiquis says that her uncle has falsely accused her of claiming others' work as her own, not giving credit where it's due, and withholding payment from her co-writer.
