From TMZ:
Not too many people fight back when the U.S. Government comes after them for money — but MC Hammer is not most people … so he’s standing up to The Man.
As TMZ first reported, the government filed a lawsuit against Hammer and his wife to get the $779,585 it claimed he owed in back taxes.
But Hammer isn’t about to just write a check … he filed a response in federal court this week claims he settled that debt already. In fact, he’s asking the court to grant him a judgement to recoup his legal fees.
