Tyrese Says He ‘Might be Arrested in Court’ in Atlanta Amid Child Support Dispute

Tyrese Gibson, known for his roles in the Fast & Furious franchise, has raised alarm over his ongoing divorce battle with ex-wife Samantha Lee. Tyrese took to social media, alleging potential collusion between Lee’s lawyer and the judge presiding over the case. He expressed concerns that he could face arrest as part of the legal proceedings, which have dragged on for nearly four years.

Tyrese canceled upcoming press events to attend court, stating his belief that the judge might make an example of him. The legal dispute reportedly centers on Lee’s request to increase Tyrese’s child support payments from $20,000 to $40,000 a month. Tyrese has been vocal about his belief that the system is unfairly targeting him, and he is determined to appeal any adverse rulings.

“At 9am in the morning in Atlanta, I might be arrested in court,” he wrote in an Instagram caption. “Samantha’s lawyers Adam Gleklen and William Alexander, who are besties with the Judge Kevin M. Farmer.”

To add, Tyrese also claimed that Judge Farmer ordered him to cancel his press run for his film “1992” and his new album. Despite many appeal efforts, Tyrese’s legal team has made attempts to get Judge Farmer recused from the case, but has not been unsuccessful.

“Judges and lawyers demanded that I come to court and canel my press and media for my 1992 movie and my new Beautiful Pain album interviews and demanded that I come to court,” he added. “We are appealing all of his rulings and have already have tried twice to get this judge thrown off the bench twice. The second time we tried to get him recused from the bench. [He actually denied his own request to be thrown off the bench.]”

This legal drama follows the couple’s 2020 divorce, where issues surrounding their prenuptial agreement have played a significant role in the ongoing conflict​.
