The Game No-Shows In Court, Judge Approves Seizure Of Cameo Profits To Pay Down $7 Million Debt To Alleged Assault Victim

More than five years after a jury ordered The Game to pay Priscilla Rainey more than $7 million, the rapper is still fighting efforts to collect the judgment. Now Rainey has successfully gone after one of his newer sources of income: Cameo.

According to court documents obtained by Radar Online, a judge has approved Rainey's request to seize money The Game earned through Cameo, the platform where celebrities charge fans for personalized video messages. The order is part of Rainey's continuing effort to collect the $7.13 million judgment she won against him.

The case dates back to The Game's VH1 reality dating series "She's Got Game." Rainey, who appeared as a contestant on the show, accused the rapper of sexually assaulting her during an off-camera outing in 2015. The Game denied the allegation, but in November 2016 a jury found him liable and awarded Rainey $1.13 million in compensatory damages and $6 million in punitive damages.

The Game appealed, but in 2019 a federal appeals court upheld the award.

Paying it has apparently been another matter entirely.

Court documents cited in the new report indicate that The Game has paid Rainey $293,902.29. But because interest has continued accumulating, the amount he reportedly owes has actually grown to $7,375,551.25.

Rainey's latest collection effort targets The Game's earnings from Cameo. Court records reportedly show that he generated nearly $20,000 on the platform between October 2020 and January 2021, with his earnings exceeding $1,000 on some individual days.

The amount is tiny compared with a judgment exceeding $7 million, but the ruling demonstrates how aggressively Rainey is pursuing The Game's income wherever she can find it.

Her attorneys have also accused the rapper of taking steps to make collection more difficult. According to the filing, Rainey alleges that The Game created a company called F12 & Associates, LLC, as part of what her attorney described as "a concerted attempt to hinder or delay Plaintiff's judgment enforcement efforts."

The Cameo dispute also produced another familiar development in the long-running litigation: The Game reportedly failed to appear in court.

The judge ultimately granted Rainey's request involving the Cameo income and warned The Game that continued failure to comply with court orders could have more serious consequences.

"Failure by Defendant to comply with this Order may subject him to contempt of Court proceedings."

For The Game, the financial problem is becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. He was originally ordered to pay Rainey $7.13 million in 2016. Five years later, despite making nearly $300,000 in payments, interest has reportedly pushed his outstanding balance above $7.37 million — and Rainey is now pursuing everything from his music-related income to the money he earns recording personalized videos for fans.
