JUDGE BARS DWIGHT HOWARD EX FROM SPEAKING HIS NAME
Dec 2nd, 2009 by Bilal Ali
A judge in Florida has put the kibosh on any attempt by Dwight Howard’s ex Royce Lyndsay Reed to profit from his name – either financially or in boosting her own celebrity.
According to documents filed in Florida, the Orlando Magic superstar made a legal effort in October to prevent Reed, the mother of his 2-year-old son, from continuing to speak out against him – which included calling him a deadbeat dad on her blog, via Twitter and even during an ESPN interview, TMZ.com reported.
Howard also alleges Royce “is attempting to become a celebrity” from being his baby mama … even agreeing to “participate in a VH1 television show called ‘NBA Wives.’”
Dwight won a permanent injunction against Royce, meaning she is banned from “using or publishing (orally, in writing, or otherwise), directly, indirectly or by innuendo, [Dwight's] name, nicknames, image, brand photographs, and/or likeness.”
