Alexandra Davis, a 25-year-old Congressional aide who grew up in North Texas, has sued Cowboys owner Jerry Jones while alleging that he is her biological father. Davis' attorneys filed the lawsuit last Thursday in Dallas County court. The lawsuit was temporarily sealed Wednesday, and a hearing is scheduled for March 31, according to The Dallas Morning News.
According to court documents, Jones and Davis' mother, Cynthia Davis, reached a settlement to financially support the mother and child as long as they did not publicly identify Jones as the father. Davis, who was a year old at the time of the settlement, is asking the court to determine that she is not legally bound by the agreement between Jones and her mother if she were to attempt to legally establish that he is her father. Davis does not want to be sued or lose her financial trusts. Additionally, Davis is pursuing declaration from the court that such settlement agreements should be "unenforceable" in Texas.
Jones and Davis' mother began a relationship during the mid-1990s, according to curt documents. Alexandra Davis was born on December 16, 1996, and her mother and then-husband (who was estranged at the time) filed for divorce shortly thereafter. Genetic testing determined that he was not Davis' biological father. Jones, however, was informed by Cynthia Davis that he was the father of her new child; Jones responded by saying that he was unable to have children, according to court documents.
The lawsuit states that Jones and his lawyers negotiated a settlement that would "exchange money for silence." A breach of the deal would result in financial support being cut off and Jones or Donald Jack, Jones' lawyer, would sue.................
1. Entertaining soap opera, where the background shenanigans of the Dallas Front Office, rival that of the old "Dallas" TV series. They've had a couple of rounds of sexual harassment and voyeurism settlements by management in the last few months.
2. IF DNA analysis says Ms. Davis is Jerry's daughter, that has big time implications for team ownership. Jerry's no kid, so who inherits?
This one is heating up
