Time to Pay the Piper

Evander Holyfield spared himself from getting sent to the pen:

Former heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield has reached agreement in a child-support case, avoiding a court hearing that could have led to a call for jail time. Randy Kessler, attorney for the mother of Holyfield’s 10-year-old son, said Wednesday the boxer paid $9,000 in back child support and agreed to meet his other financial obligations within a month, including private school payments, health insurance and a college trust fund.

Holyfield, working to resolve his financial problems, also agreed to pay some of the attorney fees for Kessler’s client, Toi Irvin. The agreement was reached before a scheduled deposition and two days before a court hearing, at which Kessler was planning to ask for jail time if Holyfield didn’t pay up.

It’s about time he scraped up the dough to handle his responsibilities. Damn that dead beat nonsense.
