Carolla Sues Furniture Store for Poppin' a Squat

Adam CarollaHaving "The Man Show's" Adam Carolla for a landlord would be pretty cool ... unless you don't pay up ... then he'll crack down on you with some serious legal firepower.

Turns out Carolla and his wife Lynette own a building in Burbank that they rent to the Lounge 22 furniture company. In docs filed recently in L.A. County Superior Court, Adam claims L22 hasn't paid rent since May -- and on July 2nd, he gave them 3 days to pay up or get out.

The deadline came and went -- and Carolla has since fired off a lawsuit, demanding $44,913.42 in unpaid rent from May, June and July -- plus $499.03 for every day they stayed in the place past August 1st.

It's unclear when -- or if -- L22 left the building, but we're told some furniture is still on the property.

1. Im glade that Adam is at least a celebreity who is doing positive with his life. He has a right to get his money. Nobody knows how much the place the store is on so we can't judge him by his actions. Good luck Adam

9. His podcasts are really good, I like listening to him ramble sometimes...

And he's getting his money just like any other landlord would... You either pay up or get out, he's given them notices and time.

10. Needs the money??? Are you serious?? CBS is paying him through the whole year. And HE didnt get booted. The whole station got dropped. Great podcast!! Always in the top 10.

11. The picture is all part of TMZ's, 'no, we're really news... see, look at this low-quality screen grab that we're going to imply comes from video we shot' image.

In any case, no land lord would let this stand - celebrity or not.

12. This guy is a liar of the highest order, when he had his radio show he constantly bragged how he was a "contractor" and how people "paid him to build houses". Yet the Contractors State License Board has no record of him. Hmmmmmm.... Everything about this horse's ass is either totally fabricated or grossly exaggerated.

This idiot knows how to work a chop saw and has convinced thousands of dopes that he's a "contractor". He's a poser. A funny poser, but a poser nonetheless.
