The ex-fiancee of Los Angeles Lakers superstar Luka Doncic has decided to drop her court case against him over child support for their children.
Doncic, 27, has been embroiled in a messy custody battle with model Anamaria Goltes, who filed a petition for child support and attorney fees from him earlier this year. The couple share two young girls – Gabriela, 2, and seven-month-old Olivia.
But court documents submitted on Monday, according to TMZ, show Goltes, 28, has asked a Los Angeles judge to dismiss the case.
‘I am withdrawing my Petition for Child Support with the specific intention of resolving this matter amicably and by a mutual agreement which is in the best interests of our children,’ she wrote.
The request has not yet been granted by the court, however, because the documents were missing Doncic’s signature.
Doncic, who signed a three-year, $165 million maximum contract with the Lakers a year ago, made the ‘tough decision’ to end his engagement with Goltes in March just months after the birth of their second daughter, Olivia.

‘I love my daughters more than anything and I’ve been doing everything I can for them to be with me in the US during the season, but that hasn’t been possible, so I recently made the tough decision to end my engagement,’ he said in a statement provided to ESPN.
‘Everything I do is for my daughters’ happiness and I will always fight to be with them and give them the best life I can.’
The split has since turned bitter, with Doncic accusing Goltes of filing for child support in California to ‘avail herself’ of the state’s generous payment laws.
Court documents reveal Doncic filed a motion to dismiss the petition, arguing that neither Goltes nor the children are actually residents of California. They live in Slovenia.
Following the conclusion of the Lakers’ season in May, Doncic decided he would not play for the Slovenian national team this summer in order to devote more time to his two daughters.
‘I love my daughters more than anything, and they will always come first in my life,’ Doncic wrote on Instagram.
‘As I continue working toward joint custody of my daughters, I have been forced to make a difficult decision between traveling and playing for the Slovenian national team and being with my daughters this summer.
‘Unfortunately, it has been made extremely difficult for me to see them over the past eight months.’
He then added: ‘I have given everything to representing Slovenia and I am disappointed that I will not be able to play for my country this summer. But right now, my daughters and my responsibilities as a father are my priority.’
