Combs’ ex-girlfriend, Misa Hylton-Brim, won a family court decision in WestchesterCounty in October 2004, compelling the mogul to pay over $35,000 a month to care for their 12-year-old son Justin.

Combs would then appeal judgment and in 2005, a judge would eventually drop the monthly payments to $21,782 and then reduce it further to $19,000

By the Court Of Appeals declining Combs’ appeal, he is still expected to pay $19,000 a month in child support payments. . Combs also pays child support to model Kim Porter for their son, Christian.

"We’re pleased the original order was reduced, but we thought there were issues applicable for the Court of Appeals to entertain." Combs’ attorney, Stephen Gassman told the Associated Press
