Katt Williams was not burglarizing anyone, according to his lawyer, William Briggs.
William Briggs told TMZ Katt was in Georgia shooting a movie, staying out the house of a friend and the movie’s producer, Barry Hankerson.
Briggs says the reason his client was busted is because he was involved in a dispute with one of Barry’s employees who lives in the guesthouse. The employee called the cops and reported a fake burglary, Briggs says. Briggs adds Katt had “full permission” to be on the property and has been staying there for the last 3 weeks.
Katt is still in custody. There’s a bail hearing is set for 4 PM ET.
His bond was set at $41,150.
