On Monday, May 21, boxing manager James Andrea Prince, owner of Houston's J. Prince Boxing company and Rap-A-Lot Records will appear in a Houston courtroom to answer to a Misdemeanor Charge of Assault brought against him by Complainant Ronald Eugene Bookman.

Bookman, owner of Houston's multi-million dollar Studio 7303, one of the country's premiere music recording studios, alleges that he was beaten at the instruction of Prince by seven other men at Prince's Prince Recreation Center's gym in Houston after being lured to the gym by Prince for a supposed business meeting. Bookman suffered severe head injuries, a broken nose, fractured ribs and had both eyes blackened, one of which requires surgery. The business meeting was ostensibly to be about Bookman receiving clearances from Prince for a Rap-A-Lot artist to perform on a single from the new CD of Bookman's first artist on his fledgling label, 7303 Records.

This latest charge against Prince follows an earlier attempt by Bookman to charge him with a Misdemeanor Charge of Assault which was filed by Houston Police Department Investigating Detective David Hernandez on Friday, May 4 , which was dismissed by Judge M. Harris on the same day. The new charge was filed Monday, May 7, and an arrest Warrant was issued for Prince's arrest on Wednesday, May 9. Prince has since made bond and is due in court on May 21, 2007.

"I think maybe we're finally getting some of the politics out of the way with this case and we're moving forward now. We're going to get down to the nitty gritty of what happened, who was involved and what is going to happen next," Bookman said.

"And by my standing up, I expect anybody else here in Houston or elsewhere that they have done this to or jumped on, need to find their voice and their feet. They need to stand up and be heard. This is ridiculous. It don't make no sense. We're free and we should be able to function as businessman and not heathens. This kind of conduct seems to be a pattern of Rap-A-Lot and apparently is condoned by the head of Rap-A-Lot. This is an evil pattern of intimidation, coercion, and interference in business matters. He is not the gatekeeper to legitimate business in the city of Houston."
