Courtney Love a Freeloader?

Courtney Love's lawyer better clear his calendar for the foreseeable future--the America's Sweetheart singer has more than enough legal woes to keep him busy.

Love's latest peccadillo stems from her alleged failure to pay common charges to her condo association for the course of seven months, according to a lien filed last month by the board of managers of 30 Crosby Street Condominium and published online at The Smoking Gun Website.

The lien claims that Love owes a total of $17,939 in common charges, late fees, damage bills and electricity costs.

Apparently, the grunge rocker has neglected to pay her bills since last October, and as of March, she still wasn't writing out any checks.

Love purchased the 4,123-square-foot condo in March 2001 for $2.64 million. (We bet that review board is kicking themselves these days...)

Side note: Fellow rocker Lenny Kravitz, who owns the penthouse in the same building, is reportedly close to selling his 6,000-square-foot dwelling upstairs from his, shall we say, eccentric neighbor, per Gawker. No word on why Kravitz is selling...maybe he feels the neighborhood has gone downhill.

The lien against Love just adds to the outspoken singer-actor's ever-growing legal troubles.

Last Thursday, she appeared in a Beverly Hills courtroom, where she was ordered to stand trial on felony drug charges, stemming from her October overdose. Her arraignment is set for April 30.

Love did not attend Los Angeles court proceedings the following day, where a May 3 trial date was set for a pair of misdemeanor charges stemming from her October arrest for smashing windows at her ex-boyfriend's house in an effort to get inside.

On Monday, she appeared in a New York courtroom for a hearing on charges that she tossed a microphone stand into a crowd, allegedly injuring a clubgoer.

Head spinning yet? That's okay, we're sure hers is, too.

All this jetting about for her various court appearances can't be easy on the singer's finances--which apparently are none too plentiful these days.

In a Blender magazine interview this month, Love claims to have been swindled out of approximate $40 million from a "fiduciary institution."

Perhaps that accounts for her reported $4 million in debt, which in turn might account for why those condo charges aren't getting paid.

Or maybe not. We're not even going to pretend to know how Love works.
