Defamation Lawsuit Against Cowboys Owner Jerry Jones Dismissed by Judge

Alexandra Davis' defamation lawsuit against Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was dismissed by Texas Federal Judge Robert W. Schroeder III on Tuesday, according to Don Van Natta Jr. of ESPN.

Davis has said that she is Jones' biological daughter and that the Cowboys' owner and two of his associates "initiated a deliberate plan" to publicly paint her as an "extortionist" and "shakedown artist" and attacked her credibility "based knowingly on false statements and accusations"

Per that report, Davis first sued Jones in March 2022 (in separate litigation to the defamation case), seeking to be recognized as Jones' daughter and saying she had been paid $375,000 and had two trusts set up in her name in an effort to hide that Jones was her biological father.
