In a new court filing,Angelina Jolieis alleging that exBrad Pitthas not paid enough child support and is asking that a court order make him comply.
“[Pitt] has a duty to pay child support,” Jolie’s attorney, Samantha Bley DeJean,stated in a brief that was filed on Tuesdayin Los Angeles Superior Court, according to NBC News. “As of present, [Pitt] has paid no meaningful child support since separation.”
A spokesperson for Jolie tells PEOPLE, “The aim of Angelina’s routine court filing is to provide closure to the marriage in a way that clears a path toward the next stage of their lives and allows her and Brad to recommit as devoted co-parents to their children.”
A source familiar with the situation, however, says of the court filing: “Brad fulfills his commitments.”
