Halle Berry wants child support amount reduced?

LOS ANGELES: Actress Halle Berry has reportedly filed documents asking judge to cut her monthly child support obligation out of suspicion her ex-beau Gabriel Aubry is using the money.

Berry and Aubry, who dated for five years before splitting in 2010, have joint custody of their daughter Nahla. Each has the kid around 50 per cent of the time.

Berry, 48, has asked the judge to reduce her monthly child support obligation from $16,000 a month to just over $3,000 a month, reported TMZ.

The actress has apparently claimed in her legal documents that Aubry, 39, has stopped working and is content to live off of the child support, and that's an abuse of the system.

She has reportedly added that Aubry is perfectly capable of getting a job and by reducing the support it will allow 6-year-old Nahla to live a comfortable life, supplemented by his income.
