Overview
- A Los Angeles County judge granted dismissal without prejudice on Aug. 14 after Anamaria Goltes formally withdrew her March child‑support petition, ending the immediate California case.
- Goltes filed the withdrawal on Aug. 3 and said she sought an amicable resolution in the best interests of the couple’s two daughters, but her first withdrawal filing was rejected for procedural defects before being corrected.
- Dončić’s attorney, Laura Wasser, had argued in filings and at the hearing that California was an improper forum because the children live in Slovenia and the petition amounted to forum‑shopping.
- Dismissal without prejudice does not decide child‑support, custody, or parenting‑time issues and preserves the option to refile in California if jurisdictional grounds later justify it.
- The dispute is now active in Slovenia, where media reports say Goltes has made a reported $50 million demand; that figure is a claim in negotiations, not a court award, and could affect parenting time and settlement talks.
