That's what happens when you're a celeb and go f$ck around with girls.

They usually come back and say: ''HHAAAAAAAAAALFFFFFFF !''.

Do I feel bad for Dwight ? Nah. He should have been smarter about it.
I just hope the kid doesn't suffer.

Howard messed up and now he's going to pay for it.

I hope he's learned from this.

Still, it's none of anyone's business but their's.

It means Royce wants to have a court establish what Dwight contributes to their child's support. It doesn't mean Dwight isn't willing to support the child, but kids take a couple of decades to grow up and people' attitudes change over that time. It's just something one has to do if not married to the other parent of one's child.


thanks

The "Relationship" started when she was a dancer for the Magic and ended about two years ago. She was a dancer for the Heat, but got fired for trying to get involved with a Heat player (Wade).
That event that produced baby was a one night stand.
Now all of this as already been published if you are wondering.
And if you believe that she is such a sweet girl checkout her website. Not the one at MySpace that was deleted by the people at MySpace, because of it's content.
Oh yea real sweet girl.
But that does not say that Howard wasn't wrong and that he should pay child support within limits.



wow that doesnt sound good at all, do you have a link or something about that?

That's bs. I never heard that. If that's true though, Dwight got pwned.

But the chances of that happening are slim to none, right? Didn't the chick in your case sign the baby over? Royce isn't that stupid. On top of that, Dwight is on the road because of the Magic. I don't know about this stuff but, Dwight seems pretty screwed.

yea i'm gonna need to see the links to those publications that said she was chasing after Wade or that it was a one night stand. Plus cougar, you said that they started going out two years ago when she was with the Magic, and then she got pregnant when she was with the Heat in a one-night stand. Kind of contradictory isn't it? Unless it was just a booty call after they had broken up or what not.

None of us knows any of the three involved, at any level whatsoever. Reflect on that before your comments.

As long as he does the right thing and it doesn't effect his on-court performance...

I'm pretty sure she left the Heat squad midseason because she got pregnant.

Howard Mass wrote:This same thing happened to Dennis Scott over 10 years ago with another woman who wanted more money. As I recall, it was actually a case that was to set presedent in these type of cases.

I do wish that Dwight's personal life would not have gotten out but do not believe he would not support his kid.

He is a great young man and I support him 100 percent in all aspects of his life. Hopefully, this will be resolved privately.
Well put Howard mass i totally agree

You need to re-read my post you twisted everything I said. I don't think I need to write it all down for you again.
By the way most of the links are from Dec and we know how long some links don't last, but some of the links are to this website.
I said they broke up two years ago the rest you can re-read. Nothing contradictory about what I wrote it's just that you don't seem to want to understand what I wrote.
Part of the information came from her own MySpace website from her own blog which she deleted when she realized people were reading what she had posted about Dwight and those posts were not all that nice.
She now has her own website called RoyceReedSuperStar that should tell you something about her.

Here is another link with some help as well.

Royce changed the name of her site maybe realizing the RoyceReedSuperStar was alittle over the top.

Child Support is determined by chapter 61.30 Florida Statutes. In general terms the child support will be $1,437.00 per month for the first $10,000.00 of net income. Then add 5% of all net income over $10,000.00 per month. The Dennis Scott case had to do with the argument that his child did not need $350,000.00 per year to live. The argument at trial was that his child made more than the average lower level NBA player. Unfortunately the argument fell on deaf ears and he paid a butt load of child support. I have clients that pay $10,000.00 to 20,000,00 in cumulative child support per month. My biggest cases were Cecil Fielder and Ed McMahon's wife. There can be some big awards for Child Support and Alimony. Dwight is actually lucky he wasnt married and established a "standard of living" which would dictate Alimony.

Funny thing is that these children make the same amount of money per year as their parents lawyers and they havent even gotten out of diapers yet. My Mom should have humped a superstar. Damn!!!

Sorry cougar those links arent exactly what I would call excellent sources. I felt like I just looked at one of those "E" Hollywood gossip adds with a photo on the front claiming that they saw Jesus being held by Mary with an Angel watching over both of them.

Yeah....it just seems that far out there. Nothing against you.

This is what Royce Reed is asking for in her suit:

"Petitioner [Reed] anticipates that an upward adjustment . . . will be required pursuant to a number of reasons. . . . The petitioner also is entitled to good-fortune support for the child," according to the suit.

So it does sound like she is already getting money, but she wants more.

Well, I guess the sun will rise again tomorrow :roll:
All things considered, a really dumb move by Dwight.
