ATLANTA (AP) - An Atlanta judge has ordered the arrest of former
NBA player Jason Caffey, who's accused of failing to pay thousands
in child support.
In October, a judge in Alabama rejected a bankruptcy case filed
by the former Alabama standout, clearing the way for him to be sued
for child support.
Fulton County Superior Court Judge Cynthia D. Wright issued an
arrest warrant Tuesday over Caffey's failure to obey a court order
that he pay more than $200,000 in child support and legal fees to
Lorunda Brown and her attorney.
Brown's attorney, Randy Kessler, said Brown is the mother of
Caffey's 6-year-old son.
Caffey played nine years in the NBA for the Chicago Bulls,
Golden State Warriors and Milwaukee Bucks. He was born in Mobile and played at the University of Alabama before he was drafted by Chicago in the 1995 NBA draft.
An attorney who represented Caffey in the past didn't
immediately return an e-mail seeking comment.
