Bill Cosby‘s accuser has obtained a writ of execution after he was ordered to pay more than $59 million in civil damages to the former waitress who accused him of attacking her in 1972.
According to court documents obtained Tuesday, October 20, by the National Enquirer, the Cosby Show alum, 89, was served a writ of execution — issued to “enforce and satisfy a judgment for payment of money,” according to the U.S. Marshals Service.
The civil judgment is usually enforced by seizing and selling a debtor’s non-exempt property or garnishing their funds.
The disgraced former comedian owes $59.25 million to Donna Motsinger plus more than $3.3 million in accrued interest and fees, according to the legal docs. The judgement is for “Damages from Sexual Assault of Intoxicated Woman and Sexual Battery,” the docs state.
TMZ reported in July that Cosby is not in good health, according to his lawyer. He was scheduled to be deposed on June 23 and June 24 but could not attend.

According to legal documents obtained July 14 by the outlet, Cosby’s lawyer Jennifer Bonjean said the former actor could not proceed with his deposition due to his “disabilities, age-related health issues, and related logistical challenges that could not be avoided.”
Additionally, according to Cosby’s lawyer, he is “legally blind and suffers from a variety of health issues, including significant mobility limitations.”
Cosby “must be accompanied by a male assistant at all times to ensure his safety and to help with basic needs like using the restroom,” his lawyer stated in the legal docs, which stated that Cosby’s support was “not available on the scheduled days.”
The former TV dad seemed to go off the grid after the court ordered the payment.
