Dr. Dre’s business associate Larry Chatman is accusing the rapper’s estranged wife Nicole Young of stealing money from a business account on two occasions.
Record One studio co-founder Larry Chatman, according to TMZ, has had his legal team correspond with Young over two transactions involving the business account: one last month in the amount of $353,000, then another for $31,457.
Young’s name was removed from the account before the latter withdrawal, and she had no legal access to the funds, according to Chatman’s lawyers. Dr. Dre and his legal team have sent communications to Nicole and her team that the money be put back into the account immediately or they will sue her for the balance.

Young’s lawyer Bryan Freedman said that the latest move from Dr. Dre’s camp amounted to ‘a clear attempt to smear Nicole’s name,’ telling the outlet she was authorized to the funds she withdrew amid the marital split.
‘As people are well aware, banks do not give out money to people who are not authorized to receive it,’ Freedman told the outlet.
