Attorneys for Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones asked a judge Monday to dismiss a lawsuit filed against him in Dallas County by a woman who alleges that he is her biological father. Court documents say the lawsuit was filed when Jones and the NFL team were facing “monetary extortion attempts” and alleges the lawsuit is one of them.
In Monday’s court filing, Jones’ lawyers say 25-year-old Alexandra Davis delivered a draft of the lawsuit to Jones and offered to “make a deal” to “assure that he would not be publicly or privately identified” as her father. The court filing did not say when that occurred.
The lawsuit was filed after Jones declined to pay, the court filing said. The filing said Davis and her lawyers “will be the subject of other litigation which has been filed or will be instituted shortly.”
