NOTHIN BUT A LAWSUIT
Poison drummer Rikki Rockett sues local contractor over home repairs
THE BLAST — Rikki Rockett has been having anything but a good time when it comes to remodeling his Los Angeles home and now he’s suing the construction company that has been handling it.
According to court documents obtained by The Blast, the Poison drummer claims he hired a company in early May of 2018 handle construction work and remodeling of his Los Angeles home.
He claims the two sides never had a written agreement, just an oral one. Rockett claims the company has taken “inconsistent positions” when it comes to the money — sometimes they say the agreement was for a “fixed sum,” other times claiming it was on a “cost plus” basis.
Rockett claims the company started on the project but, to date, still has not completed the work. He alleges they have “failed to perform and to complete the services,” performed “substandard” work in violation of building codes, subtracted work using “unqualified and uninsured workers,” caused numerous delays, and incurred excessive cost overruns.
In the lawsuit, Rockett claims he has suffered “significant loss of property” and financial losses.
He is suing for breach of contract, fraud, and defamation and is seeking unspecified damages.
