According to court papers filed last week, West's attorneys called Bryant's treatment of the rental home "negligent and abusive," per the Dallas Morning News.

The 6,400-square-foot-home was allegedly "littered with trash and feces, missing blinds and shutters, with cracked windows and blackened carpeting" following Bryant's January departure, with the Cowboys star reusing to accept responsibility for the damage.
