The court ordered the rapper to pay $98k in principal, $7k in interest, and another $11k in attorney fees. The grand total owed is $118,593.09.
As we first reported, earlier this year, the bank sued Pump claiming he defaulted on loan payments. It said Pump took out a $300k line of credit in October 2019.
City National said Pump stopped making payments in August 2021. The bank accused him of refusing to respond to their demands which led to them taking him to court.
The bank said Pump owed $98k on the loan plus $4k in interest. In addition, it asked that he be ordered to pay $11k to cover City National’s legal fees.
