Court Filings Say the Actor Fell Months Behind on Payments for a Spanish-Style Bungalow
Actor Mickey Rourke is being sued for eviction after allegedly falling nearly $60,000 behind on rent at a Los Angeles bungalow, according to court records filed this week.
The lawsuit, filed Monday in Los Angeles Superior Court, claims Rourke failed to pay rent for a three-bedroom Spanish-style home he began leasing earlier this year. The property’s owner is seeking possession of the home, along with damages and attorney fees.
Rourke, 73, whose legal name is Philip Andre Rourke Jr., signed a lease in March for the three-bedroom, 2½-bath residence, built in 1926 and located near the Los Angeles County Museum of Art in the Fairfax District, the complaint states. Rent initially was set at $5,200 per month and later increased to $7,000.
According to the filing, Rourke owes $59,100 in unpaid rent. The landlord served him with a three-day notice on December 18, demanding payment or surrender of the property. When no payment was made, the owner turned to the courts, the lawsuit alleges.
The property is described in real estate listings as a “nicely upgraded Spanish bungalow.”
The complaint names Eric Goldie as the plaintiff and seeks back rent, damages, and reimbursement for legal costs.
