French Montana is facing legal issues after an incident involving his pet on his property resulted in financial repercussions. A recent court ruling has ordered the rapper to pay more than $400,000 following a dog attack that occurred at his Calabasas estate in 2019. The incident involved Montana's Tibetan mastiff attacking landscaper Jason Leyva, causing significant injuries that required hospitalization and medical treatment. Despite Montana's belief that a settlement had been reached, Leyva disputes this claim, stating the payments he received were for landscaping services, not compensation for the dog attack. Montana's attorney intends to challenge the ruling and potentially appeal the decision if necessary. Initially seeking a higher amount in damages, Leyva alleged that Montana failed to fulfill a promise to cover his medical costs after the incident. The court ruled in favor of Leyva due to Montana's failure to respond to the lawsuit promptly, although the rapper argued that he was unaware of the legal proceedings until after the default judgment was issued.
