CSIs Gary Dourdan Files For Bankcruptcy


Recommended Posts

Well the dumb ass finally reaches rock bottom. All those millions he made in CSI are gone. You know what the funniest part of this news article is?

"I anticipate major acting roles in the future."

Yeah. OK Gary. You haven't done squat since you were fired from CSI for being a drug addict. Nobody with common sense will hire this guy. Drugs baby...drugs, that's why he got fired from CSI in the first place.

He blew all his millions in gambling, drugs and hookers, not to mention his lavish lifestyle and now he has nothing thanks to all that. I don't feel sorry for him at all.

Gary Dourdan was once a star on the most popular show on television, but now the "CSI" actor claims he is bankrupt.

Dourdan, who starred on "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation," filed for bankruptcy in August, TMZ reported on Monday. According to documents, the 45-year-old actor has $1.8 million in assets, but owes $1.73 million. A large chunk, specifically $1,689,704, is owed to various banks, one of which holds his mortgage.

Despite having starred on eight seasons of CBS' Emmy Award-winning "CSI," Dourdan claims his monthly disposable income is just $321, according to TMZ. He allegedly makes $14,883 per month, but $14,562 goes to bills. He "anticipates major acting roles" in the future, however, which will help him pay off his debt.

The

bankrupt Dourdan filed an injunction on Aug. 30 to prevent Wells Fargo from putting his Venice, Calif., home up for auction, CBS 42 reported. That same day, he filed bankruptcy papers.

His financial issues first surfaced in 2010 when he was sued over credit card debt, according to CBS 42.

Bankruptcy is not Dourdan's only run-in with the legal system.

Last November, the former

"CSI" star was arrested on felony battery charges for allegedly breaking his girlfriend's nose. He pled not guilty.

In June 2011,

Dourdan was arrested for drug possession after getting into a major car accident, TMZ previously reported. The charges were eventually dropped. Hisinvolvement with drugs stems back to 2008, when he was arrested for possession of cocaine, heroin, ecstasy, miscellaneous prescription drugs and paraphernalia, according to the Associated Press.

A lot of people make more money than they can handle. However, ain't nothing going to change for him if he doesn't get himself cleaned up.

It's all within you. It's up to you to make a good life out of everything you have. You don't see Donald Trump doing drugs do you? And he has tons of cash. The guy needs help big time.

He has more than $1.8M in assets, a luxury home, expensive furniture and books, and earns $14,883 a month. Now, I understand that he owes almost $1.7M and his mortgage may be in default but his current situation is entirely his fault. At least, it seems that way. I don't understand how you can be paid so much money but blow it all away.

yeah getting $14k a month and declaring yourself bankrupt is a joke

as said previously its his own fault

He might have got some money form the csi episode a couple of days ago lol

The article is stupid as well, claiming he will never get another role. Uh hellos,the amount of actors who's gone off on drugs, cleaned up again, and gotten major roles is almost as big as the list of major actors in Hollywood.

Sorry but it's easy to say that when you are used to your own level of income and lifestyle, when you are an actor in a successful show and have millions do you expect him to live in a little terraced house, drive a banger, eat takeaways, etc....?

Not that I'm defending him, but its not as easy as "omg I could live off $14k in a year".

Of course your life would change you certainly wouldn't continue to do what you did before but you wouldn't want to change to much because it will ruin you. All the vices that come from being rich is really bad!

    • Very fitting name since AI users have air where there brains should be.
    • Yes, it was amusing at the time because even then dbrand was well known for stealing the designs of products from other companies. That’s what they do.
    • Didn’t Dbrand once complain that Casetify was ripping off their designs a well? seems pretty bad of them to try and get around Valve’s copyright this way with that in mind.
    • Dbrand thought they could get away with this Steam Machine case, Valve disagreed by David Uzondu Image via Dbrand Dbrand has cancelled its highly anticipated Companion Cube enclosure for the Valve Steam Machine, which it teased back in November of last year with a concept render and sign-up page, because it did not ask Valve for permission first before manufacturing the case. According to Dbrand, it took the "backwards approach" of building the product first before asking for permission from the copyright holder. Seven months of work went into the project, requiring over a thousand engineering hours from the design team. Workers developed forty-four sets of injection molding tools, making a unique mold for each sub-component of the crate. When the Companion Cube went live on Monday last week, it, according to Dbrand, quickly became the second-fastest-selling product in the company's fifteen-year history, racking up orders for hundreds of thousands of units. Customers eagerly bought the $129.95 deluxe edition or the bare-bones $99.95 version, which the manufacturer cheekily branded as the "Poverty Cube". It was around this time that the legal eagles at Valve descended on the accessory maker with a formal demand. The developer pointed out that the iconic block design remains protected intellectual property from the game Portal, so unlicensed sales had to stop. Dbrand said that all its pleas to salvage the project with the Valve team, including proposals to run a properly licensed release under official terms "with their blessing", fell on deaf ears, so it had no choice but to obey and remove every trace of the product from the internet. If you bought the enclosure, the company said that banks will process your refund by the end of this week, but if it still hasn't arrived in your account by then, you should not hesitate to contact support. The Steam Machine itself is a high-performance console that Valve designed directly to bring PC gaming into the living room. It was announced on 12th November 2025 (the same day Dbrand announced the Cube) and runs on the Linux-based SteamOS, the same OS that powers the Steam Deck. As for the price, due to the shortage of memory and storage chips, the hardware cost landed much higher than people were expecting, starting at $1,049 for the 512 model (without a controller) or $1,128 with the new gamepad. The premium 2 TB model pushes those prices even higher, selling at $1,349 for the standalone console and hitting $1,428 if you want the bundle.
