Hulk Hogan Tells Judge $400,000 Not Enough To Live On

»  Comments | Post a Comment

Three months after Linda Bollea was given $400,000 from the frozen assets of her estranged husband Hulk Hogan, to pay attorneys' fees involved in her divorce from the famed former wrestler, it now appears Hogan himself wants some of that money, too.

On Monday, attorneys for Hogan, whose real name is Terry Bollea, filed documents asking that Hogan be given $300,000 from the frozen assets.

A hearing on the matter is scheduled for Thursday at 1:30 p.m.

In December, when Linda Bollea was granted her money, Hogan's frozen assets were said to total roughly $7 million.

In the paperwork filed Monday, Hogan said he underwent back surgery on Feb. 28, and is not expected to be able to work for an extended period of time. No income is projected for this year.

Hogan says in the paperwork that, in accordance with court orders, he has been shelling out roughly $60,459 a month for a year in temporary alimony payments to Linda, coupled with expenses associated with the mansion where she is living.

That amount does not include the $296,316 he has paid for insurance and taxes, along with other expenses, the paperwork says.

Nor does it include the $2.48 million he has racked up in attorneys fees, the paperwork said.

Attorneys were hired to defend Hogan's son, Nick Bollea, against criminal charges that resulted from an Aug. 26, 2007 car wreck that left Nick Bollea's passenger, John Graziano, with brain damage. Attorneys were also hired to defend Hogan against an ongoing civil suit filed by Graziano's guardian. And they were hired to represent Hogan after Linda filed a divorce action against him.

For Hogan himself - and for the financial support of his mother, Ruth Bollea - Hogan says in the court documents that his expenses come to roughly $35,547 a month.

"Husband has at this time only $410,985.84 remaining in his bank account and has accounts payable in the amount of $312,686.35," the paperwork says. "Husband will not be able to pay the aforesaid accounts payable, and both the court-ordered expenses and his own living expenses in the coming months unless he is allowed to withdraw monies from the parties' frozen funds."
