The Game Fights Home Seizure After $7M Judgment in Sexual Assault Case
Rapper The Game is embroiled in a legal battle stemming from a $7 million judgment awarded to Priscilla Rainey, a former contestant on his VH1 reality show, She Got Game. Rainey accused The Game of non-consensual groping during an off-camera date in 2015, and after his repeated failure to appear in court, the judge ruled in her favor.
Rainey’s Pursuit of Justice
Despite securing the judgment, Rainey has faced significant challenges in collecting the awarded amount. In her latest efforts, she moved to seize The Game’s house. However, the rapper is pushing back, filing documents earlier this week to halt the process.
According to court filings obtained by AllHipHop, The Game is requesting the court dismiss the Order for Sale of Dwelling and release the levy placed on his property. Rainey alleges that The Game transferred the deed of his home to his manager, Wack 100, to shield it from being seized.
The Game Denies Being Served
In his defense, The Game claims he was never properly served with paperwork related to the potential seizure. “No individual delivered any court papers to me on August 22, 2024, at any location,” he stated in the filing. He further alleges that he only learned about the Order to Show Cause from media reports.
The rapper’s legal team has also called into question the credibility of the person who claimed to have served him, casting doubt on the legitimacy of the service.
Financial Troubles Mount
The potential loss of his home isn’t the only financial setback The Game has faced recently. In October, his car was broken into in Los Angeles, with thieves making off with approximately $100,000 worth of jewelry and designer bags.
Ongoing Legal and Financial Struggles
The Game’s legal and financial troubles continue to make headlines, reflecting the lasting impact of his 2015 court case. For Rainey, the fight for her compensation is far from over, while The Game battles to retain his assets amidst mounting challenges.
The case underscores the complexities of enforcing legal judgments, particularly when assets are allegedly transferred to avoid collection. Whether the rapper’s house will ultimately be seized remains to be seen, but the legal drama is far from over.
