According to Associated Press, "Justice Micki Scherer feels that the rapper has put himself in the position of perhaps controlling the outcome of the case".
When asked the Judge said "I think the potential for it is a big problem".
The case dates back following a Lil Wayne concert at the Beacon Theater in Manhattan.
After being pulled over by the NYPD, officers discovered a .40 caliber handgun, and arrested Rule along with both of his friends, Mohamad Gamal, and Dennis Cherry.
Ja had to put up his Saddle River, NJ mansion to make up for their combined bail of $320,000.
In other news…
His attorney, Stacey Richman, told the court that the defense would try to come up with separate bail packages for the other two men.
The Judge is expected to rule next month on the prosecutor's request for DNA samples for the defendants.

Thats some real ass shit no matter what yall say.
Man all yall muthafuccas dissin Ja rule cuz of this..which i dont like ja or 50..but...50 cent wouldnt bail his own mother out of prison if it came down to it let alone put his house up....Respect for Ja,more than ever!!!fuc anybody sayin different...
CAN ANYBODY SAY EXTORTED??
nice look for ja loyalty
a good thing of loyalty but you can't say a good look for anyone when they have put the house up
That is some real ish. His children stay in that house. That is real loyalty, he put up everything for his niggas.
Respect.
stop posting your horse-shit. none of it makes sense and we don't care what you have to say, you made three posts within a five minute period on one topic, not to mention ten others on four other articles, get a life.
so you are saying when he had more money he wouldnt have spent it on friends, but now that he is poor he will sell his house to help em out?? that doesnt really make sense to me
alot of rich folks use assets instead of cash. it's quite common in the wealthy society.
stop spamming
damn ja
keep ur head up
Let the gunit dickriders jump in this and diss him now..........
Na ja did a good thing.......props.
no. He knows his friends won't jump bail, and put up an asset. instead of a cash amount or bank account.
looool this nigga is fucked if he had 2 put up his crib as bail
damn the aftermath of his destruction from the unit left him broke lol
but good lookin out 4 what he did
good lookin on ja LOYALTY is a must wish i could say the same for fif.
what u mean the same for 50...as if yayo didnt have a million in his bank account when he got released from jail
^^^ you dont know what them niggas got in the bank. He was starvin them g-unit niggas before that vitamin water money. Buck couldnt even buy his chain back from them chicago niggas. That was a true story.
THat's some thorough ass shit there. Yall can hate all you want.
Folks, why would you give law enforcement 320k cash when you can just offer a lien against your property?
u have a point
Well said Sarge.
i never seen nobody get shut down like 50 shut him down like da man said. but anyway wow dats crazy put up da crib doe
Much respect to Ja, can't roll over on your boys-or maybe he was worried about them rolling over on him?
I respect Loyalty...
Stand up guy...
~Be Eazy!
that doesnt mean his house is only worth 320,000...it just covers the cost of the bail...if they were to take his house and sell it they would have to give him all the residual dough left over
Your sister dont even own that house!
When she sneaks me in through the basement window she always bitchin about her house note!
Who is the dummy that said why would u put cash up..he put his house up a place to sleep if them niggas dont show up his house is gone..which means 320,000 is gone and now you have to go buy another house which means ur gonna spend another 300,000 again..so know ur out 600,000 u genious
i doubt ja only has one crib...
The funny thing is, everybody be thinkin' these rap dudes ARE SOOOO RICH and they puttin up houses and ish for collateral... ha...
my thoughts exactly! but that was stand up of him 2 do what he did so he gets props
Cuz them niggas make them videos that have these niggas fooled. To top it off these rap niggas cant tell an asset from a liability and spend all their money on stupid shit.
that nigga getting broke but even God respect loyalty. so im with him with this
U gotta respect that loyalty. He went all out for his niggaz. That deserves propz. Though the homeboy is gettin' broke...
you gotta do what you gotta do man...its dat 50 curse dem niggaz can't servive this shit...lol but dat nigga jive showed alot of loyalty for dat,cuz he knew everone was gone no about and he didnt care he just cared bout his nigga...if one go we all go.1
ja can eat a fat dick forreal
50 Gone buy his house, watch!
Real talk, if Ja was to lose is house 50 would buy it just to set it on fire
50 still h8s Ja
this is sad, i don't care about ja as an artist but, this situation is just fucked up, keep your head up ja..get at the kid ~1~
See now that is some looking out for your dudes shit. You take a fall with some of your niggas and you bail them out. Not that faggot puffy shit, you don't leave a nigga in there to fend for themself.
some of the dudes on here are idiots...this has nothing to do wit 50..."buy it and set it on fire" "my sister's house is worth more than that"
HIS HOUSE IS WORTH MORE THAN $340,000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
u guys need to stop letting these rappers educate u and read a book haha
I see everybody saying keep your head up ja, maybe if he didnt get into trouble he wouldnt be in this situation right now. Thats where I give 50 more props than any other rapper because he dont put his self in that position to get in trouble and waste money on lawyers and all that other shit. I cant say the samething for these other rappers that gotta prove that they are down and they are gangsta's and go out to clubs and shit and end up getting in trouble. And everybody know if u a boss u shouldnt have to carry the gun so if u were to get stop by the police they wouldnt have shit on you.
50 can't get into trouble because his Ass don't go nowhere.
I was meaning to drop my 2cent on this when I 1st peeped it,…but I had rush to practice.
On the real, I was thinking, either way Ja was gona act cats was gona hate. Hold on before y’all start trashing me,…I can’t stand this 5ft 7 nigga Ja.
So if he walked away from his peeps like Jimmy did Max B or the way Fif did Bang ‘em smurf (my Jamaican Queens nigga know),…we would have called him fake blah, blah, blah…
Now he sells his property to get his cats out we call him broke,…I mean can he win for ounce?
And to the Cats that have posted bail Know, that you get that GWAP back if the defend respect his terms of parole,…but could lose it if they got knock again, or if they lose the Case.
Either way Ja is a fuck boy, but for today he gets a pass with me. He looked out for his people,…that’s real
the thing wit that is jimmy didnt tell max b to go out their and do some crazy shit, fif didnt tell bang em to go out their and do some crazy shit, these dudes was wit ja when they got in trouble and probably for his gun, so he should pay for their bail
^^^^^
True that, but in Bang ‘em & Fif’s case they did plenty of dirt together, plenty smell me?
Bang ‘em was like fif right hand man, Lord only knows what they did,…so it was just right for fif to bail him out,…just my thoughts
There is no halfway shit about it.
If you put your home up to get your people out of jail you a stand up nigga.
I dont care if you the fakest, whackest, lamest nigga in hip-hop. In real life that takes alot of loyalty & love. It means he trusts these niggas enough to show up to all their court dates and not do no dumb shit.
I also think its funny that 50 strong armed the nigga out of his style. Like iceberg I dont give a shit about Ja-rule or his financial trouble but I recognize when a nigga steps up to the plate.
OUCH! is he that broke? lol
tru story all yall talkin bout ja n 50...50 did not murder ja if yall remeber em did....no suprise but while dat beef was happenin this nigga 50 couldnt go nowhere not 2 queenz or nuthin cuz puss boy snitched on preme n irv n ja....so fuck 50 he a certified snitch...have ppl wondered y this bitch ass nigga got shot in da first place...cuz he a disloyal faggot.....n that nigga ja cud still go backk 2 queenz witout gettin hiz shit rockked....n not even tha but the cops that arrested that nigga was waitin on him 4 no fuck reason until he got back 2 his car n then they busted that nigga so fuck the police 2 tru fuckin story....that niggaz loyal so i cant say shit cuz if it was me n i aint have hardly ne money 2 my name id do tha same shit 4 my nigz so holla
^^^^^^You are diffently True money....
what the fuck are u talking about, u must havent seen the video with fif in southside passing money out to the kids and telling grown niggas get back u aint no kid. That shit about 50 cant go back to his hood is untrue and played out

By Tai Saint Louis
A New York judge has ruled that Ja Rule's co-defendants in his gun
possession case must pay their own bail, revoking the arrangements made by the rapper himself.
According to Newsday, State Supreme Court Justice Micki Scherer said Wednesday (Feb 27), that Ja, born Jeffrey Atkins, "put himself in the position of perhaps controlling the outcome of the case," adding that she felt it could pose a big problem.
Ja Rule was arrested on July 22 along with limo driver Mohamed Gamal and Ja's road manager, Dennis Cherry, following a Lil' Wayne concert at the Beacon Theater in New York.
The charges resulted from a .40 caliber handgun discovered in the rapper's Maybach by police, who searched the vehicle after detecting the smell of marijuana.
The following day, Ja posted Gamal and Cherry's combined $170,000 bond, as well as his own $150,000 bond, using his $3.5 million Saddle River, NJ home as collateral.
Attorney Stacey Richman, who represents all three men, said the defense would make other arrangements for Gamal and Cherry's bail.
Richman also represents Lil' Wayne, who was arrested on similar charges an hour after Ja Rule, and pleaded not guilty in his case on Monday (Feb 25).
Prosecutors in the case are also seeking to obtain DNA evidence from the three defendants, to determine the rightful owner of the recovered handgun.
Judge Scherer is expected to make a decision on that request next month.
....man fuck outta here this aint even about bien broke...cops iz jus tryna put rappers n any1 associated wit em in jaill

"Im gonna buy it and make it a Museum and put my pictures all around it"
50 Cent
Fuck that..Ja actually doin some good...shit all this does is basically say that these 2 have to show up for court or his house gets repoed...HE aint broke, if he was he wouldnt put up his house for bail.
Thats gangsta...fuck cash bail..we just put up yachts and houses...he aint homeless or broke...his house HAS to be worth at least 3 times that to even consider doing this.
ja is loyal to his boys, if it was 50 he would bail on dem niggas!!
how do u sound, 50 spent millions on buck case, he spent hella money on yayo and his problems, it was some inside shit with bange em smruf that we dont know about, yall forget 50 had sent bang em smruf home before he had even caught his case, while they were on the tour so I think 50 was done fucking wit him anyway

I don't like Ja i thinks he is a homo but u got 2 respect Ja for that shit u got 2, that his home where he lays his head
Big up Ja, that's a real big loyal move right there....
lmao AND smh at people giving props to Ja but then have to add "oh, but he's a wack homo rapper and I hate him" just so that Rule haters won't get at them! If you want to then just give him props and leave it at that!
Thats a good look Ja. looking out for your friends like that. Loyalty is hard to come by these days, no doubt.
Thats real shit! if thats yo mans and em` you gotta ride at all cost even to the body bag...
But there's always things undisclosed to where we don't know shit? it's what the publicist want to know!!!
...and his downward spiral continues...
