'Real Housewives of Atlanta' Season 5 Star Kenya Moore Eviction, Landlord Wins Battle, Reality Star Defaulted 15 Times, Landlord Says
After Kenya Moore's landlord, Conya Dillon, won her court battle with the reality star for non-payment of rent on an Atlanta mansion, Dillon filed new documents requesting another hearing.
Dillon requested an eviction, back rent and damages from the breakout star of The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 5 on June 5. A Fulton County judge in Georgia ruled in favor of Dillon on June 18.
Moore and her attorney did not attend the hearing and filed a motion to delay the eviction on June 19, citing she did not receive a notice of the court date.
Dillon filed a new motion on June 21, seeking to expedite the the proceedings, because Moore has a history of "delinquencies and defaults."
Radar Online obtained a copy of Dillon's new petition, in which she wrote the former beauty pageant defaulted on the terms of her lease on at least 15 occasions.
"Plaintiff has received numerous calls from bill collectors throughout the term of the Lease as a result of Defendant's delinquencies and defaults," reads the document.
Dillon also wrote that the reality star has "prolonged the eviction process in order to avoid public humiliation as an irresponsible tenant."
Dillon told Radar Online in an earlier report that she went public with her eviction notice, because she tried to settle with Moore privately and in an amicable fashion but was unsuccessful.
"I am grateful that the judicial system has brought finality to this eviction process and I look forward to regaining possession of my home," she added.
Dillon cited two incidents on June 7, 2013 and June 20, 2013 when Moore "knowingly and maliciously made false statements" about her, one of which occured during Moore's appearance on the Wendy Williams show.
The landlord also wrote that Moore is using the eviction as a means to "maintain relevancy as a reality TV personality during the downturn in her career."
The papers also revealed that Dillon's legal battle with Moore has caused her "emotional and financial distress" and has deprived her of "normal sleeping habits." Dillon also said the publicity of the court proceedings against Moore has forced her to close all of her social media accounts due to "overwhelming contacts and requests from the public."
According to the landlord's original eviction papers obtained by Radar Online, Moore fell short on her rent payment for the month of May. She was renting a six-bedroom, six-bathroom mansion but fell short by $848 on her monthly rent of $3,999 for the mansion in Roswell, Ga. The landlord is seeking the outstanding amount, rent for the month of June and $2,500 for eviction fees and damages.
