 NEW YORK (Top40 Charts) - Sean "P. Diddy" Combs has finally reached a settlement in his ongoing child support battle with ex-girlfriend Kimberly Porter over their 3-year-old son, Christian Casey Combs, according to a spokesperson for Combs at Dan Klores Communications. After failing to show up in Manhattan Family Court nine different times over the course of the case, P. Diddy finally appeared -- under threat of arrest -- on Tuesday (March 5), where he and Porter agreed on undisclosed terms for the rapper's paying of child support, health insurance, and other necessities. Despite P. Diddy's ongoing off-the-books financial support of the child, Porter sued P. Diddy last June for paternal declaration, which would have required the rapper to shell out 17 percent of his income in child support, among other things. As a result of Tuesday's settlement, P. Diddy's undisclosed contributions are now court-ordered and the two have joint-custody of the child.
