Last month it was reported that Damon Dash was on the verge of losing the rights to his cult classic film, 'State Property,' for refusing to comply with court orders after losing a defamation of character lawsuit [click here if you missed that].
Now Dame could be tossed in jail for his continued defiance...
From AllHipHop
Damon Dash is facing the threat of arrest after repeatedly ignoring court-ordered discovery deadlines in a long-running legal fight with filmmaker Josh Webber over unpaid judgments and asset disclosures.
A federal judge warned that if Dash and his company Poppington LLC fail to comply with discovery demands by May 9, 2025, the court will hold him in contempt and may issue a bench warrant to compel his appearance.
The warning comes as Damon Dash’s legal team has moved to withdraw from the case, citing his refusal to cooperate and his stated intention to file for bankruptcy.
Despite repeated court orders, Dash has not responded to discovery requests served on March 10, 2025.
His attorneys told the court he has ignored multiple attempts at contact and failed to provide required financial information.
They were granted permission to file a motion to withdraw, which must be submitted by May 16, with any opposition due by May 23.
Webber’s legal team has asked the court for permission to seize Dash’s personal property, including his film rights—such as the cult classic “State Property”—and other business assets.
However, the judge ruled that request premature until ownership and turnover proceedings are resolved.
Damon Dash has not yet filed for bankruptcy and no new attorney has stepped in to represent him.
He has 30 days from his legal team’s withdrawal to secure new counsel and formally initiate bankruptcy proceedings.

He needs to level up. Mess with snow bunnies with a bag.
