From the Charlotte Observer: A Mecklenburg judge has issued an order for arrest for former professional wrestling champion Ric Flair, who was held in contempt earlier this month for not paying his estranged wife more than $32,000 in spousal support.
Flair, one of Charlotte’s best known celebrities whose given name is Richard Fliehr, was ordered to pay $4,000 a month to Jacqueline Beems, who filed for a legal separation last summer. The money was intended to go for her car payment, health insurance and legal fees.
But following at least two court orders, Flair didn’t pay $32,352.51, according to court documents obtained by the Observer and Brad Smith, Beems’ attorney.
The order for arrest was issued on July 3, but the wrestler can avoid jail time if he pays what he owes, according to court documents.
Flair told the Observer Tuesday night that he planned to pay Beems on Wednesday.
“The reason I didn’t pay my ex-wife the 32 grand is because my son died and I was in the hospital for a month,” Flair said. “I was in the hospital for a month with a blood clot. I didn’t go to work for three months.” http://www.charlotteobserver.com/2013/07/16/4168998/judge-orders-ric-flairs-arrest.html$4000 a month for car rental, legal fees and health insurance? OK, with ObamaCare, I can see about $1000 a month in insurance, but legal fees every month? The remainder for a car? Seriously?And after this?: In February 2010, a few months after they were married, police were called to their south Charlotte home because of an altercation. Beems was charged with misdemeanor assault after the two got into a fight. The charges later were dropped by police for lack of evidence
I met Flair once, at a rest area in between Chicago and Milwaukee and he popped out of his limo, in a fancy suit, a bandage on his head, followed by several bimbos. He was a lot smaller than I thought- he came up to my shoulder, at best.So, this part of the article may not be true: Flair and Beems were married in November 2009 and separated in June 2012, when Beems accused her husband of committing “acts of marital misconduct.”
“Husband has had numerous intimate relationships with other women during the parties’ marriage to the embarrassment and humiliation of wife,” the complaint alleged. Oh well, if he pays the money, he will have one less cage match to fight.
