Dwayne Rudd to Pay 10% of his Income for Child Support

In Nashville, Tennessee, U.S. District Court Judge John Nixon ordered former NFL linebacker, Dwayne Rudd, to apply 10% of his annual income to child support payments.  The order came to be after Rudd failed to pay more than $540,000 in child support.

Aside from being ordered to pay 10% of his income, Rudd was also given a five year suspended sentence, per the prosecutor's recommendation.

Recently, Rudd's income changed substantially, so he will not have to return to court until Judge Nixon determines how much he owes in child support payments.  Originally, Rudd had been ordered to pay $7,500 each month for child support.  However, he had not made any payments since 2004.
