Musician Stevie Wonder has filed a civil lawsuit in Los Angeles Superior Court to evict Carmen Efferson from a Hollywood Hills residence. Efferson, Wonder’s former fiancée, has reportedly occupied the three-bedroom property rent-free since July 1988 under a verbal agreement. The dispute intensified in July 2026 when Wonder’s representatives attempted to access the home on three occasions to conduct mandatory inspections for property insurance renewal. Efferson refused entry, an action Wonder’s legal team claims jeopardized the property’s insurance coverage. Following a requested deadline of August 27 to vacate the premises, Wonder initiated formal eviction proceedings. The lawsuit seeks a court order for her removal, legal costs, and $600 in damages resulting from the insurance lapse. Correspondence between the parties has been described as hostile, with Efferson accusing legal representatives of using a “racist coldblooded ‘white male privilege’ tone.”
