MEADVILLE, Pa. - Despite two previous tests that show otherwise, a Pennsylvania mom is still trying to prove NBA great Michael Jordan is the father of her 4-year-old son.
Lisa Miceli, 35, wants a judge to require the five-time NBA MVP to submit to a third paternity test. Jordan claims in his harassment suit against Miceli that two paternity tests in 2005 ruled him out as the child's dad.
The Meadville woman also wants the judge to lift a temporary restraining order imposed when Jordan filed his suit in February.
Neither request was immediately ruled upon.
Jordan's attorney, Frederick Sperling, filed a seven-page response, which states Jordan consented to the second paternity test on the condition that Miceli have no contact with him if he was ruled out as the child's father. The second genetic test did just that, he argues, but Miceli has continued to contact Jordan.
