Reporting from The Daily News, now, on Corey, with the latest entertainment headlines, Mickey Rourke, the 73-year-old actor from films like San City, recently lost in a fiction case after withholding nearly 60,000. Dollars in rent from his landlord, Eric T. Goldey. The landlord took him to court over unpaid rent, and Rourke says he stopped paying because the house had serious problems. He pointed to ongoing rodent issues and plumbing repairs that when ignored, despite his repeated requests. Eric told E. News on March 11th that basic maintenance was never handled properly, and he did not make the choice lightly. A court judgment on March 9th went in the landlord's favor by default, since Rourke did not respond in time under California law. This gave Goldey possession of the property and ended Rourke's lease, forcing him out. Earlier this year, a Goldfundme campaign set up by a member of his team on January 4th raised over $80,000 to help him stay in the home. Rourke quickly distanced himself on Instagram, saying he was confused and embarrassed, and

he would never ask for charity. His manager, Kimberly Hines, clarified that he initially agreed to the help, but later backed out amid media attention. She noted the funds remain untouched, and she has covered his moving costs herself, adding that the money will be returned if he refuses fan support. This story is made possible by our sponsor.
