The Game can breathe a little easier after a judge ordered his music royalties cannot be seized by a creditor to pay off a $7.4 million debt, but leaves the door open for it in the future.

According to court documents obtained by The Blast, a judge has denied a request by Priscilla Rainey who demanded a court order allowing her to seize his income.

The judge said the motion was improperly filed and there is no real emergency. He notes Rainey could seize the royalties in the future but not at this moment.

She recently asked for a judge to assign all rights, title and royalties in any money or payments, explaining he is releasing "Born to Rap" later this year.

Rainey said he still owes her $7,254,123.18 on the judgment she won and wants all his royalties to be paid to her until the debt is settled.

Priscilla Rainey was a contestant on The Game’s VH1 reality show “She’s Got Game.” In her 2015 lawsuit, she claimed that during production the rapper sexually assaulted her by forcefully reaching his hand inside her dress to rub her bare vagina and buttocks.

A jury awarded her $7 million in damages.

Rainey has accused the rapper of not paying a dime on the judgment and refusing to turn over information about his finances.
