Dennis Rodman has been slapped with legal papers by the IRS over an alleged $500,000 tax debt.
According to court documents obtained by Breaking Celebrity News, the Internal Revenue Service filed a federal tax lien against the former NBA star on April 22.
Uncle Sam filed the doc in Orange County with a luxury apartment address listed for Rodman. The IRS accuses him of owing $3,342.33 for the year 2019. Rodman was hit with a separate tax lien by the government back on February 6, 2020.
The document claims the former pro basketball star owes $497,624.32 for multiple years. The breakdown of the debt is $26,950.06 (2016), $392,043.02 (2017) and $78,631.24 (2018). Most of the debt came from the year he visited North Korea. The total amount owed on the two liens comes to $500,966.65.
The IRS has yet to file a release of the liens, and both remain active. The government warns him if he doesn’t pay up, they will start the process of seizing his assets.
