Deion Sanders' Ex Tossed in Jail for Violating Custody Agreement

Deion Sanders' ex-wife was sentenced to seven days behind bars today for failing to return their kids in a timely manner ... as they agreed to do in their divorce agreement.

Pilar Sanders was found in contempt, and immediately taken into custody. The judge ruled she did not bring their 3 children back to do Deion on time after a visit last July -- and also took them when it wasn't her turn.

According to local reports, Pilar did not have an attorney with her ... and at one point told the court, “I am not a part of the United States corporation." As we first told you ... Pilar now believes she can only be judged by the Moroccan Empire (which does not exist).

Deion is also suing her for defamation and the judge ordered Pilar to delete any disparaging social media comments about Deion.

Deion Sanders' Ex Wife I Want MOOR Money

Pilar Sanders -- Deion’s ex-wife -- just filed paperwork claiming she’s a Moorish National Aboriginal, and therefore doesn't answer to U.S. courts.

If this sounds like a clever way around a divorce court ruling that cut her off from Deion's millions ... that's only because it probably is. Also ... it probably won't work.

Deion Sanders' Ex-Wife America Can't Touch Me ... I Answer to Moroccan Law Now!

Pilar Sanders is a Moorish National Aboriginal, Indigenous Natural Person who should not be governed by any laws or courts in the United States of America ... or so she's claiming in a bizarre new legal doc.

The ex-wife of Deion Sanders, who now goes by Pilar Biggers Sanders Love El-Dey, filed docs to appeal a judgment that upheld the prenup in her divorce ... and potentially cost her millions.

Pilar's docs claim she's now affiliated with the Moorish Divine and National Movement of the World -- which best we can tell (she rambles for pages about the group) means she can only be judged by the Moroccan Empire. We know.

So, translation -- we're not really sure.

Either way ... Ms. Love El-Dey's appeal was dismissed -- even before this strange filing -- and for some reason she thinks this will give her case new life in the courts.

Viva Morocco!

Deion's Estranged Wife Allegations of Credit Card Abuse

Deion Sanders' estranged wife would've SCOFFED at a $6k credit card bill when she was happily married to a rich guy ... but now, she's RUNNING from it, this according a new lawsuit obtained by TMZ.

We've learned ... Capital One has slapped Pilar Sanders with a big, fat lawsuit in Texas for allegedly failing to make payments on a $6,160.25 bill ... an amount she used to consider chump change.

We've been reporting for months ... Pilar and Deion are at WAR -- and Prime Time even kicked her out of his Texas mansion. Pilar has lawyered up and wants a cut of the NFL legend's fortune, estimated at more than $250 million.

But for now Capital One just wants its $6k ... and according to court docs, the bank says it reached out to Pilar in January, 2013, demanding she cough up the cash ... but she never paid.

Now, C.O. is suing for the full amount plus court costs.

What's in your wallet?

A rep for Pilar tells TMZ ... any financial strain Pilar is under is because Deion hasn't paid her the money she's owed in a timely manner.

Deion Sanders Wins Child Custody War with Pilar

It ain't the Super Bowl ... but it's pretty damn close -- Deion Sanders was just awarded primary custody of his three kids with his estranged wife.

We're told 11 of 12 jurors ruled in the NFL Hall of Famer's favor ... giving him full physical and legal custody of his 13 and 11-year-old sons with Pilar Sanders.

However, the Collins Co., TX jury gave the ex-couple shared physical and legal custody of their 9-year-old daughter.

Both sides were arguing for sole custody of all 3 children.

This settles the custody issues, but Deion and Pilar are still battling over finances in their divorce.

Deion Sanders My Child Support Payments Are TOO DAMN HIGH!

Deion Sanders is furious that a judge ordered him to pay up over $10,000/month in child support to his estranged wife Pilar ... claiming it's simply not fair.

Sanders just filed docs in Texas Supreme Court challenging the support order that was established in a lower court back in May.

In his docs, Sanders says $10k/month is actually SIX TIMES more than Texas law requires ... and he wants his child support obligation significantly reduced.

But Pilar claims Deion is worth roughly $250 MILLION ... and the TX Supreme Court shouldn't have any sympathy for Prime Time ... or change the support structure that's already in place.

In fact, Pilar has filed her own legal docs outlining why she needs so much cash from Deion. Among the highlights:
-- $2,000/month for a special diet for the kids
-- $900/month on uniforms and shoes for the kids' sports activities
-- $500/ month on the children's cell phones

Pilar also claims she spends $450 on haircuts for her sons and treatments for her daughter's "very thick curly hair."

Style doesn't come cheap.

Pilar's lawyer tells TMZ, "Once again, Mr. Sanders has not followed the Court's direct orders and has attempted to make up his own rules. It is clear that he still thinks he is "above the law."

The court has yet to rule on Deion's request. Stay tuned ...

Deion Sanders SCRAMBLES to Dump Dallas Condo Mid-Divorce

Deion Sanders desperately wants to liquidate his 5,000 sq. ft. condo in Dallas -- putting the luxury property up for sale smack in the middle of his bitter divorce proceedings ... for way less than the market value.

Deion listed the condo -- located in the swanky celeb-filled Azure building -- back in March ... soon after his divorce from estranged wife Pilar went nuclear, when Pilar claimed Deion's aunt had attacked her in her own house.

Deion listed the home for $4.8 million -- but according to a realtor for Azure, the property is valued at roughly $6.5 million. In fact, Deion's neighboring unit is currently listed for exactly that amount.

And not only is he lowballing his own property, we're told Deion's doing some last minute renovations to speed up the sale -- such as re-plastering the pool.

Good thing too ... because this week, a judge ordered Deion to pay $10,000-a-month in child support and cough up another $275,000 for Pilar's attorneys' fees.

Pressure's on.

Pilar was also ordered to return six containers of Deion's property by July 1.

Pilar to Deion I Wanna Chat With Your Mistresses

Pilar Sanders wants to have a little sit-down with Deion's alleged mistresses -- to PROVE he was an unfaithful husband -- but according to Pilar, Deion is trying to thwart her efforts ... by attempting to bribe one of his jumpoffs to keep quiet.

Pilar has filed a motion in court -- obtained by TMZ -- demanding sanctions against Deion in their ongoing divorce proceedings, claiming the former NFL star has been tampering with witnesses ... in this case, a 20-year-old model Deion allegedly slept with last summer named Aleea Stanton.

According to Pilar, Deion attempted to bribe Aleea to keep her mouth shut about their tryst -- so now, Pilar wants the court to punish him for his unsavory tactics.

Pilar also claims Deion orchestrated that infamous standoff between her and Deion's aunt Laura last month -- to steal an audio recording device that contained damning evidence against the NFL star.

As a result, Pilar is also asking the court for sanctions against Deion for intentional destruction of evidence and corruption.

In addition to the sanctions, Pilar filed documents requesting to take depositions of several other people -- including another alleged mistress by the name of Tracey Edmonds, coincidentally an ex of Eddie Murphy.

Tracey tells TMZ, "I am shocked to learn that Pilar Sanders is trying to drag me and my employees through her pre-nuptual dispute. I cannot understand why she continues to create public issues out of her private life issues and feel very sorry for their children."

Tracey adds, "For the record, Deion Sanders and I first met at the top of this year, after he filed for divorce, when he and his partner reached out to me to produce a project of his."

A rep for Deion tells TMZ, "Deion has made every effort to resolve this matter privately for the sake of his children and will continue to aggressively fight for the truth in court. As we have always said, at the appropriate time, Deion looks forward to setting the record straight publicly."

Pilar Sanders Sues Deion for $200 MIL I'm Not a Gold Digger!!!

Pilar Sanders says her estranged husband Deion and his daughter Deiondra mind-tricked her into believing she really is a "worthless, gold diggin' ho" ... so she's suing them both for $200 MILLION.

The suit was clearly triggered by Deiondra's Twitter rant earlier this month ... in which she trashed Pilar as a "gold diggin' h*e" ... and publicly accused her of cheating on Deion.

In her lawsuit, Pilar claims Deiondra and Deion have been attacking her with various "emotional weapons" for years ... including dominance, humiliation, isolation, threats, intimidation, denial and blame.

Pilar claims the Twitter rant was just another example of the humiliation she was forced to endure during the marriage ... adding, "[Deion and Deiondra] even persuaded [Pilar] that she was and is worthless, a 'gold diggin' ho, and that no one else would want her."

Pilar also claims the two would intimidate her by leaving various weapons on display around the house and "hurting pets."

The details of the alleged animal abuse are not explained in the suit.

Pilar is demanding $150 MILLION in punitive damages and $50 mil in actual damages. Her attorney Larry Friedman tells TMZ Pilar also wants a public apology -- and adds ... she "passed a polygraph test confirming" she didn't cheat on Deion.

Meanwhile, the divorce proceedings are still underway.

Deion's lawyer Jody Johnson says Pilar's suit is bogus -- and added, "Continued efforts to extort money and negatively impact the children will not be rewarded by Mr. Sanders." She also says Deion is looking forward to a "quick and private resolution of the divorce."

Something about ships sailing comes to mind.
