Even if he won’t be appearing on television, Jason has already brought drama off-screen. Radar Online found court documents from the United Bankruptcy Court Southern District of West Virginia showing Jason filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy in 2002. With Chapter 7 bankruptcy, the debtor’s liable property is auctioned off to pay creditors.
According to court documents, his property included a 1998 Pontiac Grand Am, on which he owed $10,000. He also owed over $30,000 in credit card bills and loans. At the time of filing, he was employed at Texas Steakhouse, but for only three weeks. In 2000, he earned $1,700 and in 2001, that number dropped to $800. His total monthly expenses, according to the bankruptcy paperwork, were $1,030, despite his lack of income.
