In a dramatic twist in his long-running legal saga, The Game is fighting to keep his luxurious Calabasas mansion after Priscilla Rainey, a former contestant from She’s Got Game, is pushing to force its sale to satisfy a hefty court judgment. Rainey was awarded $7.1 million in 2016 after a judge ruled in her favor, and she is now intensifying her efforts to collect the amount owed.
Recent court filings reveal Rainey’s accusations that The Game is using shell companies and financial schemes to hide his assets. A prior ruling has already determined that one of these companies is effectively The Game’s “alter ego,” making its assets subject to collection. Rainey’s attorney, Janelle M. Dease, argues that The Game should not qualify for a homestead exemption that would protect his property from full seizure, asserting that he is merely a monthly tenant and not the rightful owner.
In response, The Game’s legal team is vigorously defending his rights to the mansion, claiming he has resided there continuously and should thus benefit from homestead laws. As a crucial hearing approaches, the stakes are high; if Rainey succeeds, The Game’s multimillion-dollar estate could soon hit the auction block.
Adding to the tension, Rainey has already made significant strides in collecting her judgment. She successfully seized The Game’s label, LA Prolific, along with ownership rights to his album Born 2 Rap and its publishing royalties, diverting over $500,000 in revenue toward settling the judgment.
Despite these legal challenges, The Game remains active in the music scene and recently collaborated with Kanye West, showcasing his resilience in the face of adversity. As the battle for his mansion continues, all eyes are on the upcoming hearing, which could determine the rapper’s financial future. Stay tuned for updates on this unfolding story!
