From Roc-A-Fella to Rings: Webber Aims to Seize Dame Dash’s Assets
Dame Dash’s ongoing financial troubles continue to mount as movie producer Josh Webber seeks to claim more of the embattled mogul’s assets to recover an $823,000 judgment for copyright infringement and defamation. In a court filing on January 13, Webber’s attorney, Christopher Brown, has requested that Dame’s engagement ring be auctioned off to help satisfy the debt.
Webber pointed to a December 2021 article in AllHipHop, in which Dash described the engagement ring given to him by his fiancée, Raquel Horn. “The ‘engagement ring’ is owned by Dash and subject to public auction,” Brown wrote, citing Dash’s acknowledgment of the ring’s significance.
This legal battle is just the latest chapter in a years-long feud that dates back to 2016 when Dash was removed from the film Dear Frank after claims of unprofessional behavior. Webber’s company, Muddy Water Pictures, eventually sued Dash for copyright infringement and defamation, accusing him of trying to take credit for the film’s production. The jury sided with Webber in 2022, and Dash now faces this debt and other financial obligations, including $193k in child support and $8 million in back taxes.
With Dame’s stake in Roc-A-Fella already auctioned off, Webber is determined to pursue further assets to settle his claim, including the ring.
