A woman by the name of Alexandria Davis wants the Cowboys owner Jerry Jones to undergo a paternity test to determine if he is her father. The 25-year-old woman claims that Jones and her mother had an affair in the 1990s after which she was born. She has also claimed that Jones and her mother Cynthia Davis agreed on a child support settlement in lieu of their silence on the matter.

While the original lawsuit filed in March was dismissed, this time the judge in the 192nd Judicial District court granted Davis’s request and ordered Jones to submit for the test. And the NFL world has a lot to say on the matter.

This is all about a money grab. My bet is there is a sealed settlement before this case goes any further.

The court will decide whether there is substance in the lawsuit going forward. But it certainly has made the 80-year-old billionaire’s Christmas a little awkward.

Jerry Jones’ lawyers argued before the judge that the concerned court has no jurisdiction over paternity matters. And they wanted the case to be dismissed.

“This Court cannot assert jurisdiction over unripe claims and [Davis] cannot create it via her suit for declaratory relief. Accordingly, this Court should dismiss claims with prejudice,” Jones’ lawyers told the court through their filings.

They also claimed that Davis wanted to make a deal with Jones before filling the case. When the billionaire refused to pay her, she filled the case, the lawyers claimed. Jones, through his lawyers, denied being Davis’s father as claimed by her in the previous lawsuit. Whatever the result of the case, it’s another day another controversy for Jerry Jones and in turn, the Cowboys in the NFL.
