A judge has dismissed Tristan Thompson‘s paternity case in Texas amid Maralee Nichols‘ ongoing lawsuit in California against the NBA player.
Thompson confessed to having an affair that lasted four months with the personal trainer while he was still dating Khloe Kardashian.
Nichols first submitted her papers in late June while she was pregnant. She and Thompson have been battling for months over which state should handle the paternity case, and he has demanded DNA testing to prove if he is the baby’s father.
On Wednesday, Tristan and Maralee presented their testimonies in a virtual hearing.
Thompson stated in a December 16 declaration he and Nichols saw each other on a “sporadic basis for consensual casual sex” between December 2020 and March 13. “I am certain that if the baby is deemed to be my child that the only date of conception was March 13, 2021, because it was my birthday,” Thompson said in his filing.

In Nichols’ original filing in Los Angeles, she requested that the athlete pay her “reasonable expenses of pregnancy birth,” adding that he had already covered the cost of two doctor’s visits. In the filing, Nichols also requested her son’s fully legal and physical custody and granting visitation rights to Thompson.
