Xzibit Ordered To Appear Before A Judge After Estranged Wife Krista Demands He’s Held In Contempt Over Alleged Unpaid Child & Spousal Support

Rapper Xzibit is facing legal heat after his estranged wife, Krista Joiner, filed a motion demanding he be found in contempt of court.

According to court documents obtained by In Touch, Krista claims Xzibit failed to pay his court-ordered child and spousal support for December 2024 and sold or transferred assets that were meant to be shared, despite their divorce still being in process.

Krista says Xzibit owes $94,763, including unpaid child support ($1,688/month), spousal support ($3,075/month), and $90K in unpaid legal fees. She also claims he sold assets tied to a cannabis business, including valuable trademarks, for $724K, without informing her—apparently violating their pending divorce agreement.

Following Krista’s filing, a judge reportedly agreed the matter needed to be settled in court and ordered Xzibit to appear, stating:

“You are ordered to appear in this court as follows, to give any legal reason why this court should not find you guilty of contempt, punish you for willfully disobeying its order.”

Xzibit has reportedly yet to respond. Their ongoing divorce battle, which started in 2021, has been full of drama, including Xzibit’s claims of financial struggles and insisting that his ex doesn’t need support—both of which Krista disputes.

A trial has reportedly been set for February 2025.
