Kelly Osbourne and her former landlord settled dueling lawsuits in which she sought return of her security deposit and he alleged she left the West Hollywood condominium she rented from him in disarray.
Osbourne’s attorneys filed court papers with Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Steven Kleifield on Monday asking that the litigation between Osbourne and Arshea Harrison Refoua be dismissed. No terms were divulged, but the documents state that each side will pay their own costs and fees.
Refoua filed the countersuit in last July, alleging that the 30-year-old singer and former “Fashion Police” presenter left the premises in a state of “‘filth, damages and disgust” in April 2013 and that costly repairs had to be made.
Refoua claimed Osbourne put holes in walls, dragged heavy objects across the hardwood floors and allowed her dog to relieve itself throughout the condominium. The suit also alleged Osbourne allowed a bathtub to overflow and cause flooding damage.
Refoua’s countersuit alleges the costs to fix the condo after Osbourne left exceeded the $18,700 deposit she sought when she started the litigation by suing her ex-landlord for breach of contract in September 2013.
