A Los Angeles County court ordered Mickey Rourke’s eviction after the Oscar-nominated actor turned down help from fans who’d donated more than $100,000 to keep a roof over this head.
Landlord Eric Goldie won a default judgment against defendant Philip Andre Rourke, “aka Mickey Rourke,” on Monday, court records showed.
Rourke had signed a lease agreement through at least April 30 of last year, with rent starting at $5,200 before going up to $7,000 a month, for the three-bedroom home at 6520 Drexel Ave. in Los Angeles, according to court records.
Rourke fell months behind and owed Goldie $59,100, including legal fees, by the end of last year, Goldie said in court papers.
“The reason I stopped paying rent was because the living conditions in the house had become unacceptable,” Rourke said in a statement Wednesday.
