Nicki Minaj‘s Mansion Possibly Facing Sale to Settle Lawsuit Debt
Nicki Minaj’s approximately $20 million mansion in the Los Angeles area is reportedly at risk of being sold to satisfy an outstanding legal judgment. The potential sale stems from a lawsuit filed by Thomas Weidenmuller, who was awarded $503,000 after alleging assault by Minaj and her husband, Kenneth Petty, in 2022.
According to a report by US Weekly published on Tuesday, October 15, 2024, Weidenmuller filed a court motion on October 6, 2024, requesting the court to order the sale of Minaj’s Hidden Hills, California, property. The motion argues that Minaj has not yet fulfilled her financial obligation to him.
Background of the lawsuit
The lawsuit originated from an incident during a Nicki Minaj concert in Germany in 2022. Weidenmuller, who was working as a security guard at the event, alleged that he was assaulted by Minaj and Petty. nicki Minaj and Kenneth Petty initially denied the allegations.
In November 2023, a jury found Minaj and Petty liable for assault and awarded Weidenmuller $503,000 in damages. the award included $250,000 for intentional infliction of emotional distress and $253,000 for battery. US Weekly details the ongoing efforts to collect the judgment.
Minaj purchased the Hidden Hills estate in 2022 for approximately $19.75 million. The property, located in a gated community known for its celebrity residents, features eight bedrooms and ten bathrooms across approximately 20,000 square feet. Dirt.com provided detailed images and information about the property when it was initially purchased.
Legal Proceedings and Potential Outcomes
Weidenmuller’s recent court motion seeks a writ of execution, which would authorize the sale of Minaj’s property to satisfy the judgment. If the court grants the motion, the property will likely be put up for sale, with the proceeds used to pay Weidenmuller the $503,000 plus any accrued interest and legal fees.
Minaj’s legal team has not yet publicly commented on the latest motion. The outcome of the motion will depend on the court’s assessment of Minaj’s financial situation and her ability to pay the judgment thru other means.
