Nebraska Supreme Court rejects Buckhalter paternity appeal
The Associated Press

OMAHA, Neb. — The state Supreme Court ordered pro football player Correll Buckhalter to pay $4,035 a month in child support for an autistic boy he is alleged to have fathered while a student-athlete at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.

The high court rejected a paternity test — paid for by Buckhalter — that excluded him as the father. Also rejected were Buckhalter's claims that he wasn't adequately notified of a hearing and that the state erred in calculating the support amount.

Buckhalter attorney William Dittrick of Omaha and Lancaster County Deputy Attorney Barb Armstead did not immediately return phone messages left at their offices.

The state filed a complaint in June 2004 alleging that Buckhalter fathered the boy, who is now 7 years old.

Buckhalter, a running back, last month signed a new contract with the Philadelphia Eagles. He was a fourth-round draft pick in 2001.

Buckhalter's monthly child support payments were based on an annual pretax salary of $1.075 million.
