The Parent Trap: Lindsay Lohan's father Michael 'on installment plan' to pay back his ex-wife Dina for child support




Lindsay Lohan's father is on an installment plan to pay his ex-wife Dina child support, TMZ claim.
The site reports that Michael Lohan recently paid a sum on $9,500 to the New York State Support Processing Center recently, and still owes Dina around $6,000.
He has now been allowed by a judge to pay the remaining balance in $1,500-a-month installments.

TMZ first reported last month that  the former Wall Street trader was being being chased by Dina for $16,000 relating to missed alimony for the upkeep of their four children – Lindsay, 28, Michael Jr, 27, Ali, 21, and 18-year-old Cody.
The website reported a presiding judge in Florida, where the 54-year-old owns property, had suspended his driving license and revoked his passport until the amount has been paid in full.
He is now said to have got back his driver's license.

Sources claim Lohan has also received personal criticism for driving an expensive Maserati sports car around coastal city Boca Raton while 'owing thousands'. 
Failure to resolve the issue could have resulted in a prison term for Lohan, who previously received a four year jail term for a series of misdemeanours, amongst them driving under the influence, in 2005.
In 2011 he was also arrested at his home in Tampa, Florida, for an alleged assault against girlfriend Kate Major.

Michael is believed to have recently spent $50,000 on a lavish Raptor truck for his son, and friends he pays his children directly rather than submit payments to Dina for fear that she will spend the money on herself. 
MailOnline have contacted Michael and Dina's representatives for further comment.  
Meanwhile TMZ report that Lindsay isn't so happy with Dina amid claims she is up for moving to the UK to take part in the upcoming series of Celebrity Big Brother.

The show, which is set to air again this summer, is said to be quite a tempting choice for the 52-year-old matriarch and TV personality.
Often drawing in US talent - such as previous contestants Michael Madsen, Perez Hilton, Gary Busey and Evander Holyfield to name a few - Dina is said to be in the 'final stages of negotiations' over becoming a contestant.
A representative for Dina has since told MailOnline that 'Dina's not in negotiations with the show at all' and that there is 'no truth in the rumours'.
Previously: Lohan, who reportedly faces jail if he fails to pay, has previously landed behind bars for a spate of offences, amongst them a domestic dispute at his home in Tampa, Florida in 2011

Just pay DUIna the last $6,000 and be done with it. After she spends it on partying and high school clothes for herself, we all get to predict who she'll rip off next to sustain her lavish lifestyle. And Celebrity Big Brother did not and would not offer DUIna a job..... she wouldn't take it anyway...... it's WORK. She went on "The Test" then refused to do the test (after she took the money) and threw a tantrum and stormed off of Millionaire Matchmaker (after she took the money). No one will hire her for anything.

Are the children going to pay the morgage, taxes , buy food, pay the electric bill ect? I think not.
