Michael Jordan filed documents in court on Monday requesting that the paternity suit against him be dismissed, TMZ reported.
Paula Smith had filed a paternity suit against Jordan in Fulton County, Ga., claiming he was the father of her 16-year-old son.
Jordan's filing claims it has already been determined that Jordan is not the father.
"Public records show that the paternity of the child was established in a prior case in this same court many years ago and that Michael Jordan is not the father," Jordan's representatives said in a statement, according to TMZ. "It is unfortunate that well-known figures are the target of these kind of claims. Michael Jordan will vigorously defend himself and his reputation."
