A woman who has alleged in a lawsuit that Jerry Jones is her father attempted before its filing to extort money from the Dallas Cowboys owner, Jones’ attorneys wrote in a court document.
Alexandra Davis filed the lawsuit earlier this month as Jones and the Cowboys were facing “monetary extortion attempts,” according to the response document filed Monday in which Jones seeks the lawsuit’s dismissal.
Davis’ lawsuit was filed in an improper court, the Jones response filing also argues. Because of the parentage allegations, the lawsuit should be considered in family court, not civil court, it argues.
