New York-based Avid 'Da Jeweler' Davidov sued the Beautiful Girls hitmaker last year (14) claiming the singer owed him more $200,000 for watches, chains and bracelets sold between 2008 and 2013.

Davidov sought $1 million in payment and damages, alleging Kingston wrote him cheques that bounced.

The star's attorney denied the allegations at the time, insisting he could prove Kingston's innocence, but no legal paperwork was filed to defend him, so a judge has now issued a default judgment in favour of Davidov.

According to TMZ.com, Kingston has been ordered to pay $356,000 (£222,500).
