Billy Ray Cyrus Seeks $7,564 in Attorney Fees From Woman Who Claimed to Be Miley’s Mother

The request follows the Dec. 5 dismissal of Jayme Lee’s lawsuit, with the judge yet to rule.

Overview

  • Court documents filed Dec. 10 ask that Jayme Lee be ordered to pay $7,564.13 to cover Cyrus’s legal bills.
  • Lee sued in May alleging she is Miley Cyrus’s biological mother and claiming a private adoption agreement with Billy Ray and Tish Cyrus.
  • Her filing sought to be legally named as Miley’s mother, requested supervised DNA testing, and pursued damages for alleged fraud and emotional distress.
  • A judge denied Lee’s request for a trial in October and dismissed the case on Dec. 5, according to statements from Cyrus’s attorney.
  • Cyrus’s lawyer called Lee’s assertions false and harassing, and coverage notes the fee request was filed after the case’s dismissal with no response yet from Lee.
