Eminem called out his childhood tormentor by name in the rap, �"I was harassed daily by this fat kid named DeAngelo Bailey / An eighth grader who acted obnoxious 'cause his father boxes/ So every day he'd shove me in the lockers/ One day he came in the bathroom while I was p---in'/ And had me in the position and beat me into submission."
The Judge ruled the lyrics were not defamatory because they were written in the context of the song and not taken as literal fact. She also added a rap of her own to the end of the judgment. According to MTV, Servitto added the following footnote to her judgment; "Mr. Bailey complains that his rep is trash/ So he's seeking compensation in the form of cash / Bailey thinks he's entitled to some monetary gain/ Because Eminem used his name in vain/ The lyrics are stories no one would take as fact/ They're an exaggeration of a childish act/ It is therefore this court's ultimate position/ That Eminem is entitled to summary disposition."
