SHAKOPEE, Minn. — A judge evicted Minnesota-based MyPillow from a facility in Shakopee after the landlord filed a lawsuit claiming that the company, owned by Mike Lindell, was at least $200,000 behind on rent payments.
In the lawsuit, First Industrial, LP claimed the pillow company had defaulted on four months of rent in the last year, and had also not paid rent in February or March of 2024. In all, the Delaware-based real estate firm said it was owed $217,489.74.
Neither Lindell nor any representative from MyPillow appeared at the eviction hearing.
Lindell, who is a vocal supporter of former President Donald Trump, has faced slew of financial problems as he is in the midst of a $1.3 billion defamation lawsuit, filed by Dominion Voting Systems, saying that he falsely accused the company of rigging the 2020 presidential election. Smartmatic filed a similar defamation lawsuit seeking over $1 billion.
In October of last year, his lawyers asked the federal courts for permission to stop defending Lindell, as he allegedly owes them an unspecified millions of dollars, and will not be able to pay the millions more he'll need to moving forward.
