Nearly two weeks after being sentenced for perjury, Lil Kim filed a lawsuit in Manhattan's U.S. District Court Monday (July 18) against Junior M.A.F.I.A. member Lil Cease for intending to release a tell-all DVD about the trial.

Seeking $6 million in damages, Kim, born Kimberly Jones, accused Cease of illicitly using her name and likeness to endorse the upcoming DVD, The Chronicles of Junior M.A.F.I.A. Part II: Reloaded.

Cease, whose real name is James Lloyd, served as a trial witness during Kim's perjury case, helping to corroborate her false statements about her association with two men involved in a 2001 shootout outside New York radio station Hot 97.

In the lawsuit, Kim stated that she split from Junior M.A.F.I.A. in 2001 due to personal and business conflicts.

The Brooklyn rapper also said that Cease has publicly detailed the contents of the DVD, which is expected to include testimony from him and other Junior M.A.F.I.A. members concerning the trial.

Last month Cease told AllHipHop.com, "We're giving it to y'all real raw, real uncensored….I went and got all the evidence, all the paperwork to show what really happened."

But according to Kim, the upcoming DVD and its preceding edition should be classified as unauthorized false advertising.

Also listed as a defendant in Kim's lawsui t is Ground Zero Entertainment, the Los Angeles-based company that produced the DVD.

On July 6, Kim was sentenced to a year and a day in prison for lying to a grand jury. She is required to surrender to authorities on September 19.
