Minnesota Timberwolves superstar Anthony Edwards has secured a significant legal victory in his ongoing child support dispute with Ayesha Howard after a Georgia judge ruled that the case would be decided in Georgia rather than California.
According to court documents, the judge ordered the NBA All-Star to pay $3,222 per month in child support for the former couple’s 1-year-old daughter. The ruling marks the latest chapter in a legal battle that has stretched across two states and centered on where the case should be heard.
Judge Rules in Edwards’ Favor
The court determined that Georgia—not California—was the proper jurisdiction for the child support case. Edwards had argued that Howard had no legitimate ties to California and alleged that she filed her case in Los Angeles in hopes of securing a larger child support award.
The judge ultimately agreed with Edwards’ position, bringing the matter under Georgia’s jurisdiction.
