Damon Dash is currently in trouble with the law as a judge seeks explanations for his failure to provide financial documents in the Josh Webber lawsuit. A federal judge in New York is considering sanctions against Damon Dash and his company Poppington LLC for not complying with court orders in an ongoing financial dispute with filmmaker Josh Webber. Despite being requested to provide information on his assets, including film rights and company records, Dash did not respond. Failure to rectify this by April 28, 2025 could result in penalties for disregarding court directives. The aim is to locate and liquidate assets to settle a judgment exceeding $4 million that arose from a 2022 ruling. This legal battle started after Dash incorrectly claimed ownership of the film Dear Frank. In a subsequent defamation suit, Dash was handed a $4 million default judgment for failing to engage in court-mandated mediation or submit required documents. Creditors are now focusing on Dash's film catalog, including titles such as State Property, produced by his company. Failure to cooperate may lead to the court authorizing the seizure and auction of his film assets to repay the debt. Dash must provide a response by April 28 justifying his noncompliance with the court's earlier orders to avoid sanctions.
