Anamarija Goltes, the former fiancée of NBA star Luka Dončić, has dropped her legal pursuit of child support and legal fees for their two children. Court documents filed on Monday in Los Angeles show Goltes formally requested the judge to dismiss her case.
"I am withdrawing my request for child support with the specific intention of resolving this matter amicably and through mutual agreement that is in the best interest of our children," Goltes stated. This move comes after Dončić's legal team had already filed a request to dismiss the case. They argued that the lawsuit, filed in California, lacked legal standing because Goltes and the children reside in Slovenia.
Dončić had reportedly attempted to persuade Goltes to move with their children to California, but she has consistently refused, remaining in Slovenia since May. The situation highlights a complex personal matter involving international residency and child support arrangements.
