DMX’s ex-wife and kids will allegedly soon be without a roof over their heads with a NY judge ordering the family home be sold off at foreclosure … despite her emotional plea to allow her to keep a roof over her kids heads that she shares with the rapper
DMX along with his ex Tashera Simmons – were sued back in 2013 by the bank who claimed they hadn’t paid a penny on the home in over 1400 days since 2008. The lawsuit accused them of owing over $258,927 in back payments. They filed suit demanding they be allowed to foreclose on the Mt. Kisco, NY home the case is still being fought in court.
The rapper has yet to even respond to the complaint but his ex-wife has been battling the bank to keep her home recently
Tashera filed docs recently in the case in which she accused the bank of shady business by taking advantage of the fact she didn’t have a lawyer at the settlement conference
She explained that she attended multiple settlement conferences …but she did not have any money to hire a lawyer so she went by herself. During the meetings she said the bank never told her she could modify the loan or the other options they were suppose to present. She stated they only kept telling her to bring a lawyer to the next meeting and then the next … but she didn’t have money so she couldn’t. At the last meeting they told her there would be no more settlement talks
Tashera explained the only thing that stood out from the meetings was one of DMX’s creditor a company named Amusing Diversions – tried to disrupt the conferences and end any settlement talks so the home could be sold at foreclosure so they could collect on the debt the rapper owed them
She explained the creditor “went on and on about the fact that my ex-husband is a famous rapper so that she should be able to pay for the house (neglecting the fact that he had abandoned out family and that we, at that time, were not receiving his assistance at all)
According to her affidavit she stated DMX failed to defend himself in a legal battle with the creditor and they won a small judgement which has grown to a huge debt because he hasn’t paid it … which has allowed them to take a brownstone they owned and also put a lien on the home she has lived in for years with her children. Tashera pleaded with the court to allow her to work out a deal with the bank to keep a roof over her kids heads.
Then on June 18th … the New York judge came back with his decision in the case. The judge was no persuaded by Tashera’s emotional plea to keep a home for her kids. He ordered that the bank can move forward with the foreclosure sale and Tashera will need to vacate the home as a result
