Mel Gibson Ordered to Pay $20,000 a Month in Child Support

Oksana Grigorieva recently won a small court battle against Mel Gibson in their ever-evolving child custody lawsuit.

The judge ruled in her favor, and increased the monthly child support payment she receives from Gibson from $5,000 to $20,000, according to TMZ. She originally asked for for $60,000 a month.

"Everything in Hollywood is to excess. Mel Gibson is worth upwards of $1 billion. It's a very modest award by Hollywood standards and a very high award by normal people standards," her child support lawyer told the news source.

Oksana and Gibson's daughter is just 11 months old.

Currently she gets $2,500 a month for her 13-year-old son from another marriage.

She told the news source that the reason why she needed an increase in child support money is because Lucia needs constant security, because she is Gibson's Linkdaughter. Oksana also has more than $100,000 in debt for legal fees and PR costs, according to the news source.

Mel Gibson should counter file against Oksana for the child support, PLUS a percentage of her income, to go into a Trust Fund, that will control distribution to make sure it is spent on the child.
