MÖTLEY CRÜE Guitarist Wins Default Judgment Against Ex-Girlfriend
February 13, 2009
NBC Los Angeles reports that MÖTLEY CRÜE guitarist Mick Mars won a $212,000 default judgment against his ex-girlfriend, who he alleged violated the terms of their palimony settlement.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Edward A. Ferns signed off on the action against Robbie Mantooth (Photo#1, Photo#2) on Monday.
Included in the order is a requirement that Mantooth pay Mars nearly $80,000 in attorneys' fees and nearly $60 a day in additional interest until the judgment is paid in full.
In court papers filed in October, Mars' lawyers alleged that Mantooth failed to turn over information that she planned to use in her defense of his lawsuit, despite two court orders to do so.
"Her conduct throughout this litigation has made a mockery of the rules and regulations that exist to prevent this kind of activity that she exhibits at each and every turn of this proceeding," Mars' court papers stated.
