Things have not been going well for former NBA star Allen Iverson. His last appearance in court resulted in the judge calling him a horrible parent and ordering him to pay $8,000 a month in support to his former wife Tawanna Iverson for their five kids. Iverson claimed he didn’t even have money for a cheeseburger so I don’t know how he was going to be able to make those payments. Well apparently he hasn’t and Tawanna wants him thrown in jail.

Iverson’s ex, Tawanna, has filed docs with the court saying that Iverson has failed to honor the child support agreement that was handed down back in January. The order stated that Iverson was to pay $8,000/month in support for their 5 kids … but Tawanna claims Iverson has missed every payment he was supposed to make.
The two are set to be in court this week, where Tawanna wants the judge to order Iverson to fork over the $40,000 he owes in support and even suggest the judge lock Iverson up for his actions.
Talk about bad money management, Iverson was one of the highest paid athletes and now he can’t pay his child support. For the sake of his kids I hope he and ex-wife Tawanna are able to resolve this.
