A New York property at the center of a dispute between 50 Cent and his ex-girlfriend - which was burnt down last month - has been barred from being sold, a judge told the rapper on Tuesday (June 10).
50 Cent owns the $2.4 million Long Island home and rented to his ex-girlfriend Shaniqua Tompkins and their 10-year-old son.
Fire broke out at the property on May 30, with no cause determined as yet.
According to Tompkin's lawyer Paul Catsandonis, she was suing the rapper for half of his estate, based on an oral agreement the couple made during their relationship.
State Supreme Court Justice Carol Edmead ordered 50 Cent not to sell the property, and ordered that Tompkins pay the rapper the US$4,500 rent that was due for her final month in the house.
Brett Kimmel, the rapper's lawyer, stated that Tompkins had repeatedly ignored orders to pay rent that formed conditions of her living in the house.
