Mariah Carey wins full dismissal of brother's memoir defamation suit

Mariah Carey won dismissal in its entirety of brother Morgan Carey's defamation suit over her 2020 memoir The Meaning of Mariah Carey. Judge Leslie A. Stroth ruled in an Oct. 19 order that he failed to sufficiently plead actual malice. The claims centred on passages suggesting he sold cocaine and had done prison time.
