Strahan Wins Court Ruling But Is Dependent On Staying Retired

Sep 1, 2014 9:56 AM

A state appeals court ruled on Tuesday that retired Giants' defensive end Michael Strahan should not have to pay $18,000 a month in child support for his twin daughters, doesn't need to get a multi-million dollar disability insurance policy, or pay for his ex-wife's lawyer in a bitterly-fought divorce. A three-judge panel of the New Jersey Appellate Division reversed the child support payments and said that since Strahan had retired, the insurance policy wasn't necessary.
