OJ ordered to surrender watch

OJ Simpson was ordered today to hand over his Rolex watch and other assets to satisfy part of a long-standing judgment that found him liable for the deaths of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and friend Ronald Goldman.

OJ Simpson was ordered today to hand over his Rolex watch and other assets to satisfy part of a long-standing judgment that found him liable for the deaths of his ex-wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and friend Ronald Goldman.

The California judge also ruled that any future royalties from a sports video game featuring Simpson must be delivered to Goldman's father, Fred Goldman.

And Simpson must surrender any of the disputed memorabilia items seized last month by Las Vegas authorities that are found to be legally his.

Simpson was arrested after a memorabilia collector reported a group of armed men charged into his hotel room and took several items Simpson claimed belonged to him.

The former professional American football star faces multiple counts of kidnapping, robbery, assault, burglary and conspiracy in connection with the alleged September 13 robbery.

Simpson's lawyer, Yale Galanter, was not available for comment, a Florida office receptionist said.

Goldman was not in court today, and there was no immediate comment from his representatives.

Simpson was acquitted more than a decade ago of the 1994 killings of Brown and Goldman, but he was later found liable in a wrongful-death trial.

A civil jury returned a $33.5 (€23.66m) judgment against Simpson, but it remains largely unpaid. The Goldman family has waged a campaign to claim Simpson's assets since then.
