SANTA MONICA – A judge ordered Tuesday that royalties or other earnings due O.J. Simpson from his past work in movies, TV shows and commercials be paid directly to the family of murder victim Ron Goldman, but rejected a bid by Goldman's family to collect on Simpson's future earnings. Lawyers for both sides portrayed the decision by Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Gerald Rosenberg as a victory.
Simpson attorney Yale Galanter said it was key that the Goldman family failed to win the right to any of Simpson's future earnings, adding that royalties he receives from past work in such films as the “Naked Gun” movies and the TV show “1st and Ten” amount to almost nothing.
“Last year Simpson's royalty checks from all of his movies were less than 39 cents,” Galanter said.
“They got kicked to the curb again,” he added. “Every door they're banging on gets slammed.”
