According to ABV, "an Atlanta based firm:"
"We dedicated more than 1023 hours of combined labor editing clips of actor and comedian Eddie Griffin, as well as Jeffrey Star, in order to ensure that this project was completed in a timely and professional manner as previously agreed on."
Another partner of the firm, Erin Dyer says:
"We pulled in extra manpower and had our staff working around the clock to effectively deliver on our end of the bargain and successfully complete the project on time."
A rep for the ABV exclusively tells GossipWeLove, since the job was completed, the company have repeatedly requested a payment of $127,083.00 from the hip hop mogul and has exhausted all avenues of communication available for an amicable solution for collection of debt.
