LOS ANGELES — Yashar Ali must forfeit his future earnings until his debt to a Getty heir is paid in full.
A Los Angeles judge on Wednesday ordered the Twitter personality and online journalist to transfer his earnings — spelling out sources including Twitter, Substack, Venmo, GoFundMe and more — to a judgment creditor until his lapsed loan from Ariadne Getty, granddaughter of oil tycoon Jean Paul Getty, is repaid.
Judge Michael L. Stern made the ruling after a brief hearing at Los Angeles County's Stanley Mosk Courthouse. Ali, whose name is listed as Yashar Hedayat in court documents obtained by the L.A. Times, did not enter any objection to the motion that he forfeit all future payments until the $232,769 debt is repaid.
