Hogan asks for access to funds
Wrestling star HULK HOGAN has requested access to funds that were frozen by a judge during his pending divorce - because he cannot afford to pay his bills.
Hogan - real name Terry Bollea - has filed documents asking a judge to free up £219,000 as he is unable to work due to back surgery he underwent last month (Feb09).
The motion, filed on Monday (09Mar09), indicates that the star has approximately £300,000 in his bank account but owes £228,000 in bills.
The star's estranged spouse Linda, who filed for divorce from Hogan in November 2007 after 23 years of marriage, was granted £292,000 to pay attorneys' fees in December (08).
The matter is expected to be resolved at a hearing on Thursday (12Mar09).
