She's been fighting for justice after a sexually explicit video of herself was posted online without her permission.

Now Teairra Marí has encountered another legal setback involving her failed revenge porn lawsuit against rapper 50 Cent, 43.

A judge issued a bench warrant Monday for the 31-year-old Love & Hip Hop: Hollywood star after she failed to appear in court for a hearing in Los Angeles regarding her requirement to pay $30,000 of 50 Cent's attorney's fees, according to The Blast.

Teairra was expected in court on Monday for the hearing request by 50 Cent's legal team to examine her finances.

She skipped out on the court date, leading the judge to issue a bench warrant for $5,000. 

Unlike an arrest warrant, which orders police to seek out the warrant's subject, a bench warrant won't automatically send the cops searching for her. However, she'll be arrested if she comes in contact with law enforcement.
