Ryan scribbled an abuse toward the artist on one of the canvases. The damaged artworks were subsequently auctioned off on social media by the self-described "hick-hop" rapper.
According to a lawsuit filed by the artist in federal court in Florida on Monday, Upchurch allegedly violated the Visual Artists Rights Act of 1990 (VARA) when he "deliberately mutilated" the two paintings.
One of his claims was that he "defamed" Leveille by publishing the video for the Redneck Nation and that he "depicted" the musician, and another that he "depicted" Johnny Cash.
Is Ryan Upchurch Still In Jail?
In Cheatham County, Tennessee, singer Ryan Upchurch was served with an order of protection, making the information public.
The victim has had a hearing with a judge since the ex-parte order was served, and the judge sided with her and granted the full order. The victim now hopes to receive complete protection.
The order was delivered on the same day that Upchurch donated his first gold record to the Cheatham County Sheriff's Department last month, demonstrating the musician's close ties to the department.
Even if the agency is unaware of the injunction, Verna Wyatt of TN Voices For Victims told FOX 17 News that they must fix their social media posts honoring Upchurch and his donation.
"AN HONOR FROM THE CHURCH," the Cheatham County Sheriff's Department captioned a photo of Upchurch presenting the department with his gold record.
