Finding herself in a bit of an unusual situation, Halle Berry is in court to try and reduce the child support payments she makes to her baby daddy, Gabriel Aubry.

Halle wants the judge to bring down her payments from $16,000 a month to somewhere closer to $3,000 a month. She thinks Aubry is using the payments as an excuse not to find work.

According to TMZ:

“Halle Berry is in court in a face-off with baby daddy Gabriel Aubry, and she wants a judge to tell him in no uncertain terms … she’s no longer his meal ticket.

Halle wants the judge to reduce the child support she’s paying Gabriel from $16,000 a month to somewhere closer to the neighborhood of $3,000 a month.

Berry has groused Gabriel needs to get a job and pay his own freight. She says she’s happy to pay him to properly care for 7-year-old Nahla when he has physical custody, but she says he’s using the money to avoid work.

Aubry has been a successful model, but says he lost a lot of work after Halle’s then-fiance/now hubby, Olivier Martinez, beat his face in.

Halle and Gabriel have joint custody.”
