Australian acknowledged actor Vince Colosimo, is facing bankruptcy proceedings after being sued by a Greek law firm in Melbourne.
As the Age reports, the 46-year-old star has been dragged into the Federal Court for a $36,000 demand from the Oakleigh-based firm of Dandanis & Associates.
Colosimo has appeared in about 30 movies and has been acting on stage and on television the past three decades.
He is currently filming Fat Tony & Co, a spin off from the Underbelly series which focuses on the manhunt for convicted drug boss Tony Mokbel after he fled Melbourne for Greece aboard a $320,000 yacht.
According to the Age, Colosino had been also driven to the Victorian Supreme Court in 2008, when he battled his former partner Jane Hall after the end of their 11-year relationship, with Colosimo asking a 90% share of the sale of their $890,000 home in Northcote.
However, Dandanis & Associates issued Colosimo a bankruptcy notice on May 22, 2013.
A hearing has now been scheduled for October 1 in the Federal Court.
