Michael Jordan hit with another paternity battle

Michael Jordan

Retired basketball star Michael Jordan is facing another paternity battle with the same woman who twice claimed he fathered her child in 2005.

The former NBA player has been named in a new lawsuit by Lisa Miceli, who has requested a judge order Jordan to submit a third DNA test in a bid to prove he is the father of her four-year-old son.

Miceli, of Meadville, Pennsylvania, also wants a judge to overturn a temporary restraining order imposed on her by Jordan, after he accused her of harassment. But in a hearing at Crawford County Court on Friday, Jordan’s attorney Frederick J. Sperling claimed his client had already been ruled out as the boy’s father in paternity tests submitted in 2005.

Participating via phone, Sperling also stated that there would be no child-support agreement, as requested by Miceli.

He told Judge Gordon Miller, “Mr. Jordan is not the father of her child, and we’re not going to engage in any discussions on that.”

In legal papers filed in response to Miceli’s claims, Sperling says Jordan only consented to the second DNA test on the condition that she has no more contact with him if he is proved not to be the kid’s father.

Miller has yet to rule on Miceli’s request for another paternity test and the case is due to return to court later this month (Apr08).

Michael Jordan, Wife File for Divorce

 xin_48120330090307876593.jpg

Michael Jordan and his wife, Juanita, filed for divorce Friday after 17 years of marriage. “Michael and Juanita Jordan mutually and amicably decided to end their 17 year marriage,” the couple said in a statement issued through their lawyers. “A judgment for dissolution of their marriage was entered today. There will be no further statements.”

Juanita Jordan previously filed for divorce in January 2002, but withdrew her petition a month later when the couple announced they were attempting a reconciliation.

During her last divorce petition, Jordan said attempts to reconcile their marriage had failed and future ones “would be impractical and not in the best interests of the family.”

The couple met at a Chicago restaurant during his second season with the Bulls and were married Sept. 2, 1989, in Las Vegas. They have three children: Jeffrey, Marcus and Jasmine.

The 43-year-old Jordan, a part-owner of the Charlotte Bobcats, led the Bulls to six NBA titles and was a five-time league MVP. He lives in Highland Park, Ill.
