A judge on Monday dismissed a lawsuit from Mariah Carey‘s brother, in which he claimed he was defamed by the superstar’s 2020 memoir, “The Meaning of Mariah Carey.”

Morgan Carey, who is 10 years older than his sister, sued in 2021, alleging that the memoir falsely portrayed him as a violent drug dealer who had “been in the system.” His suit stated that he was not violent and had no criminal record.
