OJ’s Son Refuses to Vacate Late NFL Star’s Home
OJ Simpson’s troubles continue to unfold even after his death, with a brewing family drama over his former home. Simpson’s estate is taking legal action against his son, Justin Simpson, accusing him of moving into the late NFL star’s house and refusing to leave.
According to Malcolm LaVergne, the attorney serving as the special administrator of OJ’s estate, Justin occupied the property shortly after Simpson’s passing in April 2024. The estate alleges that Justin—through a company he owns called Primary Holdings, LLC—claimed the house as his own.
Who Gets the House OJ Left Behind?
Primary Holdings owned the palatial Las Vegas home where Simpson spent his last years. LaVergne had described it as a strategic move to protect Simpson’s financial interests. The company held the title to the house to shield it from creditors, but LaVergne claims that OJ never intended for the property to be separate from his estate. Instead, Simpson allegedly continued to make the house payments until his death.
The estate claims that OJ’s 35-year-old son refuses to move out of the house and hasn’t paid back the money OJ put into the property. To make matters worse, Justin reportedly already owned another house nearby—albeit not as grand as his late father’s—and still chose to occupy Simpson’s former residence, claiming it was now his.
Defying OJ’s Will
LaVergne insists Justin’s actions directly contradict OJ’s will, sparking tension among the heirs. Simpson’s estate has made it clear that the property was meant to be part of the estate’s assets, not a personal inheritance for Justin.
OJ and Nicole Brown Simpson’s youngest son has yet to respond to the lawsuit.
OJ Simpson’s Financial Woes Live On
At the time of his death, Simpson was reportedly $114 million in debt to the family of Ron Goldman, the man he was infamously accused of killing in 1995. “He died without penance,” said David Cook, the Goldman family attorney, in a recent statement to People.
Cook revealed that Simpson never paid a cent of the $33.5 million judgment awarded to the Goldman family, which has ballooned over the decades to a staggering $114 million with interest. “He [still] owes on the current status of the judgment,” Cook noted.
With Simpson’s passing, his assets remain tied up in probate court, leaving his four children and other heirs in limbo. The estate has already started liquidating assets—including auctioning off personal items, some of which date back to Simpson’s controversial time in prison—in an effort to pay back creditors.
This latest conflict highlights the challenges of managing a high-profile estate with a complicated history. While the legal system works to resolve the dispute, the future of OJ’s legacy—and his family’s unity—remains uncertain.
