Five-time NBA champion Dennis Rodman was just found in contempt of court and has been ordered to pay $500,000 in back child support to his ex-wife. Rodman was also sentenced to informal probation.
Orange County Superior Court Commissioner Barry Michaelson warned Rodman and told him that he could face jail time if he doesn't pay the child support. An attorney for Rodman's ex-wife Michelle argued in court that Rodman owed Michelle about $850,000. But, Rodman's attorney Linnea Willis disputed that amount. The two sides negotiated outside of court and agreed to the final figure of $500,000, which Michaelson approved.
In addition to the current penalties, Rodman was also ordered to perform 104 hours of community service back in May after being found guilty of four counts of contempt for failure to pay child support in 2009 and 2010. Sucks to be him right now.
