*The mother of Nate Dogg’s teenage son is taking legal action over her child’s monthly support payments.
According to a report from RadarOnline, Shereda Williams was reportedly awarded $3,000 monthly from the late rapper’s estate after he died in 2011. Williams and Nate Dogg share a son, Jayden, 17, who is allegedly at risk of losing his payments.
Williams filed a recent motion claiming that due to an error, the payments could end, and she wants a judge to intervene to have the income continue.
Per The Jasmine Brand, her lawyers reportedly wrote in the filing: “After paying her own basic needs of food clothing and shelter, she has no money for the needs of the minor that includes school supplies, travel expenses, Basketball Camp, clothing, and a host of other miscellaneous expenses incurred for the minor as he is a senior in High School scheduled to graduate in 2024.”
TMZ reported previously that Nate Dogg’s estate distributed $225,000 to his children after his death. Here’s how it was divided: Nate’s widow, LaToya Calvin, reportedly received $30,000. His son, Naijiel Dwoyne Hale, received $11,666, and his seven other family members allegedly received $8,333 each.
When Nate Dogg died in 2011, he left no will and had around $200k in real estate. It appears the $225k is from his music catalog. According to RadarOnline, Nate’s family members are currently involved in a heated legal battle over the finances.
Calvin is reportedly looking to sell Nate’s catalog. Per The Jasmine Brand, in a legal filing, her lawyers wrote: “No less than 4 parties have expressed interest in purchasing either the entire music catalog or in many cases a percentage of the rights, with management control,”
The filing continues, “The latter option in particular (in addition to full sale options) should be explored, because she is informed and believes it would both yield substantial immediate case for all the heirs, but also involve a better ongoing professional management team which should improve and increase the performance of the remaining unsold income producing shares that are not sold for all the heirs.”
Nate Dogg was 41 when he died in Long Beach, CA.
