Overview
- Los Angeles County court entered a default judgment on March 9 granting landlord Eric T. Goldie possession of the Drexel Avenue property.
- The landlord’s action alleged about $59,100 in unpaid rent, and the ruling terminated Rourke’s legal right to remain in the home.
- Court records indicate the judgment focused on returning the property rather than awarding financial damages.
- In a statement to E! News, Rourke said he stopped paying due to persistent rodent and plumbing problems and lack of basic maintenance.
- Reports and photos showed Rourke moving belongings in January, and he later rejected a third‑party GoFundMe set up to help him.
