"Brett Favre Strikes Back: Legal Team Moves to Dismiss Lawsuit from Mississippi Department of Human Services!"
Published: 29-11-2022 00:17
On Monday, lawyers representing NFL legend Brett Favre filed a motion to dismiss a lawsuit brought against him by the Mississippi Department of Human Services (MDHS). The lawsuit alleges that Favre failed to pay child support for his two teenage daughters and requested an unspecified amount of back payments.
Favre's legal team has argued that the MDHS does not have the legal authority to sue him as he is not a resident of Mississippi and does not owe any debts or obligations in the state. They also argue that Favre has already paid all required child support for his two daughters and that the lawsuit should be dismissed.
The MDHS has accused Favre of failing to make court-ordered payments from November 2016 through April 2017. Although Favre acknowledged his failure to pay during this timeframe, he contends that he caught up on all payments shortly thereafter. His lawyers argue that this is proof enough that he was fulfilling his financial obligations as a father and there is no need for further action.
The case is now being heard in a Mississippi court, with both sides presenting their arguments before Judge William Eubanks. It is unclear when a decision will be made, but many are expecting it soon given the high-profile nature of the case. Regardless of the outcome, it appears likely that Favre's reputation as one of America's most beloved sports icons will remain intact.
