JP Morgan Chase has started the foreclosure process against O.J. Simpson's Florida home, but there's just one problem. According to court records, the bank's process server has made repeated attempts to serve the former football great and actor at the house!

Note to Chase: O.J. Simpson is in prison! Try serving him at 1200 Prison Rd., Lovelock, Nevada. He's been there since 2008!

After being found not guilty of murdering his ex-wife Nicole Brown and her friend Ron Goldman, Simpson was found liable for their deaths in a civil suit brought by the Brown and Goldman families.

In an effort to escape the $33 million judgment against him, O.J. bought a house near Miami in 2000 for $522,000, taking out a mortgage for $575,000.

Simpson was convicted on armed robbery and kidnapping charges in Nevada in 2008, and continued to make payments on the place until 2010.

With overdue principal, interest, fees and penalties, the debt is now close to $725,000!

O.J.'s lawyers are fighting the foreclosure. They've filed a response calling JP Morgan Chase's foreclosure filing "vague."

Good luck with that one.

uhhh.. if he was paying up to 2010, there is no way that it went up to 700,000+... its a mortgage company.. not the IRS. You would not accrue nearly 200K in fines, fees and interest.

Haven't even thought about that loser dirtbag OJ in quite a while, though I know he's rotting in prison. Hope he's dropping the soap at this very instant, if you know what I'm talking about ha ha....

This is Florida, they don't enforce judgments...have one I have been trying to collect on for ten years...judge won't address it. And it's for child support!

Oj's monthly pension is $25,000 per month I think he can afford to make the payments unless the mortgage
is more then the house is worth then why make payments. Oh other point no judgement can touch his pension.

How does one "escape a $33 million judgment" by purchasing a house for half a million?

Happens all the time. He hid his assets in paper corporations. Then used his NFL pension to qualify for 100% LTV home loan. Quite clever...but look where he is now.
