Zachery Ty Bryan Avoids Bench Warrant, Testifies About Finances in $108k Battle With Movie Investor
Zachery Ty Bryan avoided possible jail time by appearing in court after a bench warrant was issued in his legal war with a movie investor. Court documents obtained by RadarOnline.com showed that the embattled Home Improvement star testified about his finances in a Los Angeles courtroom on November 30, which, in turn, canceled the warrant issued against him earlier that month.
Bryan was "sworn and examined" by a judgment debtor, with the former childhood star's bench warrant issued on November 2 "ordered quashed," the documents read.
He was ordered to return to court on January 18, 2024.
A bench warrant was issued after Bryan failed to appear at a mandatory civil judgment hearing to address the $108k he owes the movie investor.
RadarOnline.com broke the story — a superior court judge issued a bench warrant for Bryan’s arrest after he failed to appear at a mandatory civil judgment hearing to address the $108k he owes the movie investor. Bryan and his production company, Lost Lane, were ordered to fork over a whopping $108,940.57 after failing to respond to the lawsuit brought forth by a moneyman who claimed the ex-sitcom actor "tricked" him out of thousands by "forging" a contract for the 2021 movie Warning.
The investor accused Bryan of refusing to cooperate or make an attempt to pay the judgment — even after a process server tracked the actor down at his California home.
As this outlet exclusively reported, the moneyman even tried going after Bryan's residuals from 103 television, award shows, and movie appearances in hopes of collecting the $108k, but his attempts were shut down by the judge.
The actor was arrested over a domestic violence incident earlier this year.
Bryan was sued for fraud, negligent misrepresentation, breach of contract, etc., by Moore over the film that featured Thomas Jane, Patrick Schwarzenegger, and Alex Pettyfer.
