John Schneider Gets Reprieve From Judge ... Over Delinquent Spousal Support

Published | Updated

John Schneider got a big break from the judge presiding over his divorce war ... he has a month to make good on a ton of delinquent spousal support, but the clock is ticking.

John is behind more than $150,000 in support, and Elvira's pissed. She was trying to hold him in contempt of court, which could have landed him behind bars, but the judge has postponed judgment day until March 14.

The judge said John must transfer his property in Apple Valley to Elvira to satisfy the delinquency. He must also resolve his tax liens on that property before the March deadline.

John told the judge, "I'm sorry, embarrassed and humiliated to be in this financial situation."

The judge put the screws to John, saying he must be totally transparent about his finances.

One of the things that came out during the hearing ... John did a concert last Friday and pulled in $2,580.

Elvira had complained John was in the red because he's been making crappy TV shows and movies.

As we reported ... he was ordered to pay $18,911 per month back in September 2016.

Quavo's alleged beatdown of a famous jeweler was all over $10,000 ... but it wasn't Quavo's debt to pay, TMZ has learned.

Sources close to Eric the Jeweler -- who cranks out bling for 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg and many more hip-hop stars -- tell us Offset is the member of Migos who owes the $10k. Law enforcement sources confirm Eric said exactly that when he reported the fight and robbery of his $30k chain.

We're told Eric reached out to Offset multiple times about settling the debt, but was given the run-around. Then, when he bumped into Quavo early Monday morning at 1Oak, that's allegedly when the fight broke out. The jeweler suffered a swollen cheek, bloody nose and a bump on his head.

TMZ broke the story ... NYPD wants to talk to all the members of Migos and their manager. According to police docs ... Eric was jumped by Quavo and another man.

Still no word from reps for Migos.

LisaRaye tells TMZ she thinks the suspect was someone who knew about the renovations going on at her San Fernando Valley crib, and also that she wouldn't be home.

Unfortunately, she can't tell for sure who made off with $160k worth of her stuff, because the perp's face isn't clear in the footage.

John Schneider Wife Says Financial Woes Due to His Crappy Movies

Published | Updated

4:14 PM PT -- John tells TMZ in a statement that he's very proud of his body of work and looks forward to continuing to create great characters, stories as well as sharing his music. He adds ... "It's unfortunate that what is a private matter between two grown adults has resulted in a public mud-slinging."

John Schneider makes crappy movies ... according to his estranged wife.

Elvira Schneider says the former 'Dukes of Hazzard' star's been a scofflaw in the spousal support department ... she says he's behind at least $150k and she's pissed.

In her new legal docs, Elvira says because John isn't paying her money, she's been relying on income from a Louisiana property. Now here's the problem. She says John hasn't paid taxes on the property, which she blames him on "squandering a large portion of his income via investment in his hobby of making low-budget, poorly produced film and television." The IRS, she says, is ready to foreclose on the property.

She wants John to be put in jail for being so delinquent.

Mark Salling Stash of Cash Available For Child Porn Victims

Published | Updated

Mark Salling was far from broke before killing himself -- and that's good news for his child porn victims, who now have to sue to get the money he agreed to pay them.

According to docs obtained by TMZ ... Salling set up a corporation in 2009 -- right around the time "Glee" took off -- to collect his income from the entertainment biz. As of December 2017, the value of this business was reported to be $1.971 million. His father is listed as the manager.

We broke the story ... Salling's suicide essentially screwed over the victims in his child porn case because a judge didn't get to order him to pay them $50k each in restitution. Salling agreed to pay that amount as part of his guilty plea, but the judge hadn't signed off because sentencing was set for March.

The victims will have to file suit against Salling's estate, and based on the actor's financial docs ... there's dough to go around.

Colin Kaepernick Teams w/ Usher to Finish $1 Mil Pledge

Published | Updated

Colin Kaepernick just wrote his LAST check as part of his "$1 Million Pledge" campaign -- and teamed up with Usher to end it with a bang.

Remember, Kaep first started the program back in 2016 ... vowing to donate $1 MIL of his own money to more than 40 charitable causes -- including Communities United for Police Reform and The Black Youth Project.

Over the past 2 weeks, Colin enlisted some HUGE stars to match his final 10 donations -- including Steph Curry, Snoop Dogg, Serena Williams, Chris Brown, T.I. and Meek Mill (from prison).

For his final $10k pledge, Colin and Usher chose H.O.M.E. -- an org. helping single mothers facing economic hardship.

"This was an opportunity to do something major and you did it," Usher told Kaep in a thank-you vid. "This is a result of us helping each other. We all become stronger."

The former 49ers QB also issued a statement on social media, saying -- "Thank you to everyone who has supported me, matched me and my pledge and most importantly the people."

"I know that we still have a lot of work to do, however, by getting everyone involved, I truly believe that we can all achieve and move mountains towards our goals for social justice."
