PNC Equipment Finance LLC sued Phipps and his former firm, Phipps Anderson Deacon LLP, in August 2020 alleging that the attorney had defaulted on $1.7 million of a loan for a Gulfstream GIV-SP.

In November, PNC repossessed the plane and sold it at auction for $2.8 million, according to federal court documents. Now the parties are arguing over how much of the excess sales proceeds PNC should be able to keep, with the bank arguing that it is owed money for having to pursue the litigation.
