Faizon Love Arrested on Contempt in Florida and Released After Time Served

A judge credited 16 days as time served with a court order requiring updated financial disclosures to avoid further jail.

Overview

  • Hillsborough County arrest records show Love was taken into custody on Tuesday, June 16, on two contempt charges linked to a long-running paternity and child-support case.
  • At a Florida court hearing on June 19 the judge found him in contempt, credited 16 days as time served, and set a deadline for Love to file updated financial paperwork or face renewed detention.
  • Court documents and reporting say the contempt stems from a dispute in which a woman named Tiffany Lee alleges about $250,000 in unpaid child support and filings show repeated noncompliance with court orders.
  • Love and his attorney told the court he has severe financial hardship, saying he earned $0 last year, had a highest five-year gross of $13,000, lived in his car at times, and relied on modest royalty checks.
  • The contempt enforcement is separate from Love’s other legal matters, including a pending San Diego felony assault case from August 2024 that still faces a trial date later in 2026.
