Judge Shields Denise Richards' Earnings
10 Apr
Summary
- A judge blocked efforts to seize Denise Richards' paychecks.
- The debt collector sought over $228,000 from Aaron Phypers.
- The ruling protects Richards' income from her ex-husband's debts.

A Los Angeles judge has issued a ruling protecting the earnings of actress Denise Richards from being seized to cover her estranged husband Aaron Phypers' substantial debts. The decision came after a creditor attempted to claim Richards' paychecks.
The creditor, Creditors Adjustment Bureau, initiated a lawsuit against Phypers in 2022 concerning an unpaid loan. This action resulted in a default judgment of $228,000 being granted to the company two years later.
However, the recent court order signifies a victory for Richards, as it specifically denies the debt collector's request to access her income. The ruling effectively shields her earnings from being used to settle Phypers' outstanding financial obligations.
