Bobby Brown Arrested In Massachusetts; Ordered To Pay $19K
Bobby Brown was arrested for the second time in a year in Canton, Massachusetts while in town to watch his daughter at a cheerleading competition.
The 38-year-old singer was arrested, according to the Associated Press, on Sunday (February 25) on a warrant for failing to appear at a child support hearing in October.
On Monday (February 26), Brown was ordered to remain in a county jail until he pays $19,000 in late child support and court fees, according to his lawyer, Phaedra Parks.
Parks said that Brown has been struggling to meet monthly child support payments to Kim Ward, of Stoughton, the mother of his two of his children.
"Although this agreement was put in place when he was Bobby Brown the star, this agreement is being enforced when he is not always able to find work," Parks told the Associated Press. "He hasn't made an album in quite some years."
Brown currently owes child support payments from January, plus late penalties, Ward's attorney fees and constable fees.
He was arrest in March of 2005 while in Canton for his daughter, It wasn't for child support though; it was for an outstanding warrant for motor vehicle violations in Stoughton, which dated back to 1992.
Brown is currently in the midst of a divorce from Whitney Houston, after 14 years of marriage.
