Matt Barnes Ordered to Pay Former Wife Gloria Govan Over $133k for Missed Child Support Payments
It looks like former NBA player, Matt Barnes wants All The Smoke.
According to TMZ, the podcaster is substantially behind in his child support payments to his former wife, Gloria Govan. The media outlet has obtained legal paperwork that states that Barnes owes the mother of his children $133,976.54 in past-due child support payments. A judge has just ordered him to pay the arrears to his former wife.
The former couple has two children together, teenage twins, Carter and Isaiah.
The former Los Angeles Lakers player and The Basketball Wives alum were married from 2013-2016. In 2018, after paying $20,000 per month for child support, he was ordered to only shell out $7,500 monthly.
Govan REALLY needs that money so she can satisfy a judgment recently issued to her.
Court documents reveal that a Los Angeles Superior Court judge has awarded a default judgment against Govan in the amount of $197,774.62 after she ignored the lawsuit filed by the law firm Brot, Gross & Fishbein.
In the legal papers initially filed by her former attorneys, they demanded Govan be ordered to pay $250,000. That amount would cover the debt she owes them plus additional legal fees. After they hired a process server to find Govan, they tracked her to an address in Las Vegas. The law firm stated that she failed to respond to the case.
Welier this year, Barnes was hit with a lawsuit from his fiancee, fiancée Anansa Sims‘ former husband, David Patterson Jr. The lawsuit, which was filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court, alleges that Barnes committed battery, assault, and emotional distress during an incident that transpired at a San Francisco 49ers vs. Dallas Cowboys football game, according to TMZ.
