Last year Real Housewives of Atlanta ex husband Peter Thomas' Miami hot spot, Bar One, was evicted for non payment of rent after four years in business [click here if you missed that].
Now Peter has been ordered to pay $9 million in damages, in a separate lawsuit, after a failed attempt to open a different restaurant in another location...
From Radar Online
Ex-Real Housewives of Atlanta star Cynthia Bailey’s ex-husband Peter Thomas was hit with a massive 7-figure judgment over a Miami restaurant he planned to open.
According to court documents obtained by RadarOnline.com, last month, a Miami judge granted a default judgment in favor of DTS DT Retail against Thomas, his now-closed Miami restaurant Bar One Miami Beach, and his separate business 1 Society.
Thomas ran Bar One from 2019 until late last year when the business was evicted over unpaid rent. Before the eviction, Thomas had plans to open a separate “upscale supper club” named 1 Society. He said he planned to spend $3 million on the project.
The project never took off and the company formed for 1 Society was dissolved.
DTS DT Retail was the landlord for the location where Thomas planned to open 1 Society.
In January 2023, DTS DT sued Thomas and his businesses. The landlord claimed 1 Society signed a 120-month lease for the location.
DTS claimed Thomas’ business breached the lease by failing to pay rent from October 2022 to January 2023.
At the time, DTS said 1 Society owed $61k in back rent. In addition, the landlord said Thomas had failed to produce the Tenant Plans within 30 days of the lease being executed, as required per their deal.
The company claimed 1 Society refused to turn over the keys despite the breaches. DTS demanded Thomas be ordered to vacate the location and cough up the unpaid rent.
Thomas and Bar One were listed as defendants in the lawsuit due to them being Guarantors on the lease.
In response, Thomas denied all allegations of wrongdoing. He argued DTS breached the lease by failing to provide him “sufficient access to the premises.”
He argued DTS’ actions “excused his obligations under the he lease until the breach was cured.”
Thomas responded but 1 Society did not file an official answer — which led to the judge granting a default judgment against 1 Society and ordered the company vacate the premises immediately.
In a recent motion for default judgment, DTS argued that 1 Society and Thomas had not paid the Lease continuing monthly obligations of base rent (which began March 1, 2023) and other operating expenses (insurance and property taxes).”
DTS claimed due to the default, 1 Society and Thomas were responsible for damages including accelerated rent and operating expenses due under the lease. The landlord demanded $9,175,189.38 — which includes all rent owed on the 120-month lease and other expenses.

Peter is a smooth talker, and while he isn't handsome he isnt exactly ugly either. Maybe he can talk his way into some hopeless wealthy Grandma's heart.
