Hyper-prolific and yet completely forgettable country singer John Michael Montgomery has been hit with a lawsuit by the cop who busted him for drunk driving in 2006. (Wait, the cop is suing the perp? Man, these things work a lot different in Nashville than they do in the rap world.)

The cop sez Montgomery tried to snitch to internal affairs, falsely defaming the officer in order to get him in trouble. Montgomery says he was just a target of country cops who thought he was riding dirty and that the officer stole his hat. Sir, you can handcuff a man and leave him face down in the gutter, but screwing with a man’s hat is bound to make a cowboy go a little crazy.
