The reggaeton star claims González withdrew $80 million from his El Cartel Records account and $20 million from his Los Cangris company account. The lawsuit, filed on December 13 in San Juan, also names González's sister, Ayeicha González Castellanos, and El Cartel Records as defendants.
According to the 16-page filing, González allegedly:
- Made unauthorized withdrawals despite explicit warnings
- Denied Rodriguez access to financial information
- Improperly concentrated power over company operations
- Made irresponsible financial decisions
- Hired unauthorized third parties to represent El Cartel
The lawsuit specifically challenges González's role in selling Rodriguez's music catalog to Concord in October, claiming the sale was completed at a price "unreasonable, disproportionate, and far below the real value."
Rodriguez seeks immediate removal of both González and her sister from any corporate positions and demands full access to withheld financial documentation. The legal action comes as the couple announces their divorce after 20 years of marriage, during which González served as both CEO of El Cartel and Daddy Yankee's manager.
