upcoming show, and stiffing the guy on his hefty deposit ...
this according to the promoter who just hit Kelly with a
Texas-sized lawsuit. Darryl Austin says he hand delivered a
$100k deposit to Kelly's team in January for him to headline
an April concert in Dallas.
According to the docs ... when
February rolled around R. Kelly's rep played dumb and
claimed to know nothing about the show. Austin says the real
insult came when the self-proclaimed Pied Piper of R&B
returned the deposit ... $30,000 SHORT!! Austin wants the
court to either force Kelly to do the show ... or pay back the
dough.
