Kai Cenat faces fresh controversy as Reggie claims judge issued 12-month stay-away order against him

YouTuber Reginald “Reggie,” known online as “Lil Rodney Son,” says a judge has ordered him to stay away from Kai Cenat for 12 months. Reggie shared the update after a court appearance on November 3, 2026, and later said Kai had never sued him. His comments add a new turn to their public dispute, which began after Reggie made allegations involving Cenat and Twitch streamer RaKai. Kai had threatened legal action in September, but the court order Reggie described should not be confused with a confirmed lawsuit filed publicly.Reggie says court ordered him to stay away from Kai Cenat for 12 monthsReggie shared his update through Instagram Stories on November 3. He thanked his lawyer and said he was surprised that his song was played in court. He then described the decision:“Why they play my song in court lol they almost had me haha shoutout my lawyer ! The court ruled that I have to stay away from that guy for 12 months that's all nun more nun less.”However, the exact 12-month period has not been confirmed through a public court record or a statement from Kai's side. The Times of India reported on November 4 that other accounts described Kai as receiving a stalking protective order. The reported restrictions also included staying away from AMP properties and not speaking about Kai directly or indirectly. The exact terms have not been verified through a public court document.The dispute started after Reggie made allegations involving Kai and RaKai. Kai responded during a September 30 livestream, rejected the claims and said he planned to take legal action. He also challenged Reggie to contact the police and share any evidence.“I am calling the cops! Yeah! I'm suing you, brother! Like, I'm suing you, bro! And I still have sympathy for you because I know you're not yourself, bro. But it's going too far! You're playing with my name. You're playing with my family's food. You're playing with my future kids' food. That's how deep it goes.”Kai's words showed that he intended to sue, but they did not confirm that a lawsuit had been filed. His legal team later sent Reggie a cease-and-desist letter. Dexerto reported on October 27 that the letter, sent on October 2, demanded that Reggie remove videos containing statements Kai's lawyers called false and misleading. Such a letter is a legal demand, not a court judgment.Reggie says Kai Cenat never sued him and calls court appearance “amazing”During his November 3 TikTok livestream, Reggie disputed the claim that Kai had sued him. He said the court matter was different from what people were saying and repeated that he had been ordered to stay away from Kai.“‘You're getting sued, not prosecuted.’ I was never getting sued. That was the 48. He can't even sue me. See how that works? The judge ruled I gotta stay away from that guy for 12 months. I don't have no intention of going around him. I don't want to harm that guy. I don't want to do nothing to that guy. I don't want to do nothing to nobody. I am a *****. I just rap.”Reggie also praised his lawyer and said he was happy with how the court appearance went. He called himself a “free man” and joked about buying a chain the next day.“The court was amazing, bro. Shout out to my lawyer. Hey, the court was amazing. My lawyer is a beast. Feel me? Shout out to my lawyer. I'm a free man. I'm finna buy a chain. I'm finna buy a chain tomorrow.”As of November 5, Kai had not publicly responded to Reggie's latest comments. The full terms of the court order have not been made public in the reports reviewed, so the 12-month restriction remains based on Reggie's account.You use AI every day. Now get your AI Quotient.
