If things go the way rapper Max B claims, he’ll be home this summer…end of the year the latest. Max has been in jail since the summer of 2009 when he was convicted of various charges in a 2006 robbery-gone-wrong.
“The appeal process is done, finally, it’s been done for about a month now,” Max said in a new interview. “So now what they do is, the prosecutor responds back and you get a letter. They tell you, you gotta wait eight to 10 months for a response from the appellate court.” Now…I like Max as much as the next guy and I have nothing but love for him but I reeeeally doubt his appeal is going to work out and he’s counting his chickens before they hatch. But hey, who knows? Maybe we will see the infamous duo of Max and French back together this summer!

The newest acquisition increases that total to 46 percent, and analysts are predicting that the Pentastar’s latest partner may make the jump for a majority stake sometime soon. Fiat’s CEO, Sergio Marchionne, has already been quoted as saying that his company would like to eventually have control of the smallest of the Big Three. If that happens, it’s assumed that Marchionne would immediately push for an IPO.
