Leo's BBall Court Case Still Bouncing Around

Posted Jan 3rd 2008 3:30PM by TMZ Staff

The couple suing Leonardo DiCaprio for damage to their property have 15 days to amend their complaint against him -- or else they can kiss their court case goodbye.

Ronald and Joan Linclau filed the lawsuit on May 10, claiming a basketball court Leo built caused the support for the couple's backyard pool and deck to destabilize -- causing nearly $250,000 in damages.

Judge Tricia Ann Bigelow today ruled the lawsuit did not show that DiCaprio was at fault, and gave them the deadline to get their act together. According to DiCaprio's court papers, the Linclaus installed an "illegal railroad tie retaining wall" that may have caused the destabilization.

Furthermore, DiCaprio says he isn't at fault because he only rents the house. What? Leo is a renter?!

5. So why did he have a basketball court built on this rental property? I have heard of people making improvements to rental properties before to make them move liveable, but that's kind of extreme.

11. He does NOT rent. His property is on Thrasher Av next to Keanu Reeves, the house in front of his on Oriole Way came on the market - he bought it, knocked it down & built a new place with a basketball court - not sure if he linked his original property on Thrasher to the new place - he also owns his Moms beachhouse on Carbon in Malibu & owns another property of his own on a bluff in malibu beyond Broad Beach, close to Brad Pitt.

Why he would say he rents is ridiculous. Everyone knows he owns both properties in the Bird Streets.
