Philadelphia Common Pleas Court Judge Genece Brinkley has shot down Meek Mill's motion for bail, according to the Philadelphia Enquirer.
Brinkley made her decision via a 19-page court filing on Friday, December 1, three days after being told by the Superior Court to rule on the rapper's November 16 bail petition “without further delay.”
The judge said Meek, born Robert Williams, had provided incorrect address information to parole officials and police on several occasions in the past. Therefore, he was a flight risk “due to his providing false residence information to authorities.”
Brinkley also said the 30-year old was a "danger to the community."
Joe Tacopina, one of Meek's attorneys, called Brinkley's decision "disappointing." Saying it continued her "long pattern of unfair treatment" towards his client.
He added that the ruling would be appealed immediately.
Last month Brinkley sentenced Meek to 2-4 years in prison for violating his probation, stemming from a roughly decade-old gun and drug case.
