LAS VEGAS — The estate of O.J. Simpson is suing his son Justin Simpson because he won’t leave his father’s former Las Vegas home.
The lawyer representing O.J. Simpson’s estate, Malcolm LaVergne, is suing Primary Holdings, LLC, which is owned and operated by Justin Simpson, TMZ reported.
Primary Holdings technically owned the home where O.J. Simpson lived, buying it in August 2022 to protect it from the former football player’s creditors.
KLAS said the house sold for $795,000 in 2022 with intermediaries paying $159,000 of O.J. Simpson’s money for the home.
LaVergne said Justin Simpson moved into the home shortly after the death of his father and that since Primary Holdings owns it, and he’s the owner of the company, the house is legally his, so he will not leave, or pay the estate back for the payments his father made after Primary Holdings became the owner.
LaVergne claims O.J. Simpson didn’t want to separate the house from the estate and continued to make payments on the property.
The former actor was paying several creditors including the estate of Ron Goldman, who along with O.J. Simpson’s wife Nicole Brown Simpson were killed in 1994. O.J. Simpson was tried and acquitted of their deaths, but there were civil lawsuits that found him liable in the wrongful death civil suit against him filed by the victim’s families. He was ordered to pay $33.5 million in that case alone, ESPN reported in the past.
O.J. Simpson died in 2024 after being diagnosed with prostate cancer, KLAS reported.
