Dončić Faces Reported $50 Million Claim and Move to Cut His Parenting Time

A reported Slovenian filing seeks a large settlement and forces a jurisdictional choice for courts to resolve.

Overview

  • Reports published Thursday say Anamaria Goltes filed a new claim in Slovenia seeking $50 million total, with media citing an allocation of about $40 million for her and $10 million intended for the couple’s two daughters and asking to reduce Luka Dončić’s parenting time from at least two days a week to one.
  • Goltes previously asked a Los Angeles court to dismiss her March child‑support petition without prejudice, but court officials initially rejected that dismissal because the document lacked Dončić’s signature, leaving the California filing unresolved.
  • Dončić’s lawyers have argued that Slovenia is the proper forum because the children live there and Dončić opened custody proceedings in Slovenia earlier this year, creating a cross‑border jurisdiction fight over where custody and support will be decided.
  • The $50 million figure and the parenting‑time request were first reported by TMZ and have been widely amplified by other outlets, but neither Goltes nor Dončić has publicly confirmed that demand or any settlement agreement.
  • A court hearing remains on the calendar for Aug. 14, and the outcome could determine which country’s courts oversee custody, whether private settlement talks proceed, and how parenting time and the family’s travel and daily lives are arranged going forward.
