T.O. sued for child support
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Record-setting NFL receiver Terrell Owens is again facing legal action for allegedly failing to pay child support in Fulton County.
Melanie Paige Smith, in a civil suit filed Aug. 9 in Fulton Superior Court, alleges Owens has not paid child support for the month of August and has said he does not plan to make future payments.
The flamboyant football player was ordered in May 2007 to pay $5,000 per month, according to the suit, which estimated his monthly income at $666,000.
Owens made June and July payments only after being threatened with legal action, the document states.
The 37-year-old Alabama native, who holds or shares several NFL records, is currently a free agent. He last played for the Cincinnati Bengals in 2010.
Smith and Owens have a 5-year-old daughter.
