Mother of Ray Charles' Son Seeks More Child Support
The mother of Ray Charles' 16 year-old son has asked a Los Angeles court to increase child support for the boy from $3,000 a month to at least $60,000. Mary Anne den Bok says additional money from Charles's estate would provide her son, Corey Robinson den Bok, with "the lifestyle he enjoyed" before Charles died in June. Her petition seeks a minimum figure of $60,000 a month but suggests the appropriate support should be $240,800 per month. A hearing is scheduled for September 27th in LA County Superior Court. The famed singer and musician was 73 when he died of acute liver disease at his Beverly Hills home on June 10th. He left 12 children and, according to the petition, a $100 million estate. |

Which she'll get to "administer", no doubt. The famed singer and musician was 73 when he died of acute liver disease at his Beverly Hills home on June 10th. He left 12 children and, according to the petition, a $100 million estate. What does his will say? Seems to me that his estate would be distributed and each kid, whether minor or adult, would be set for life regardless and any other factors. -- If Illinois is the "Land of Lincoln", what were they before the Civil War? |

For all we know, that's exactly how Ray left it, and she's grubbing for money for herself (i.e. taking from the other kids AND HER OWN to line her own pockets). - Ron ^*^ |

In extreme cases like this, I always can't help but laugh when the person persuing the money tries to justify why the kid needs $248,000 a month, or whatever it is. -- If Illinois is the "Land of Lincoln", what were they before the Civil War? |

In extreme cases like this, I always can't help but laugh when the person persuing the money tries to justify why the kid needs $248,000 a month, or whatever it is. $60k x 12 months = $720,000.00 a year. Now, if she convinces the kid to go to college (at age 18 or so) and stay at home (or bs's the court into it) then he.. sorry, SHE, stands to make another $4,320,000.00 (4.3 Million!!!) on top of what the kid would get from his father's will. So, $100 Million / 12 kids = $8.3 MILLION per child! But, if the courts go along with her bull ****, she stands to GAIN $4.3 million more then the others. Thereby depriving the other kids of $325k each. Or $3.9 million collectively. ** sarcasm alert! ** But since her child -needs- $60k above and beyond what the others would get from their father's will, she'll get it. |

I hope that even the most liberal child support-friendly judge, who probably makes only a mere $100,000/yr, will see through it. -- If Illinois is the "Land of Lincoln", what were they before the Civil War? |
