Johnny Depp Suffers From ‘Compulsive Spending Disorder,’ Court Documents Suggest
Johnny Depp needs to have his head examined when it comes to his spending — or at least that’s the claim in new court documents filed by the “Pirates of the Caribbean” star’s former managers, who suggest that the actor may suffer from a compulsive spending disorder.
“In retrospect, it appears that Depp may suffer from a compulsive spending disorder, which will be proven in this action through a mental examination of Depp pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure § 2032.020, and expert testimony,” the Mandels’ amended cross-complaint, filed Monday in Los Angeles Superior Court, reads.
Taking a 5 percent commission of the actor’s income, “in some cases regardless of whether Mr. Depp actually received any income himself or not” — a commission that was “exorbitant, excessive, and far outstripped the actual value of services TMG would be performing for Mr. Depp.”
