Judge tells rapper 50 Cent to put insurance money in trust pending lawsuit
NEW YORK - A judge says rapper 50 Cent may not sell the Long Island property where a $2.4 million house was destroyed by fire last month.
New York State Supreme Court Justice Carol Edmead also says he must put insurance proceeds from the fire into a trust account pending the outcome of his dispute with his ex-girlfriend.
Ex-girlfriend Shaniqua Tompkins says 50 promised her a house a decade ago, but had recently wanted to evict her and their 10-year-old son Marquise from the house in Dix Hills, on Long Island.
A suspicious fire destroyed the house May 30.
Tompkins, Marquise and four others were treated for smoke inhalation. The rapper, whose real name is Curtis Jackson, didn't live there.
The rapper has been nominated for 13 Grammys, including one for the album "Get Rich or Die Tryin'." In 2005, he starred with Terrence Howard in a semi-autobiographical movie based on that album.
