Last year lawyer Leicester Bryce Stovell stepped forward claiming to be LeBron James' long lost father, via a one night stand with LeBron's mom when she was 15 and he was 29 [click here if you missed that]. Bryce's reason for coming forward after 26 years was he felt he had been shut out of LeBron's life and had therefore missed out on any monetary gains he would have received if he had been allowed to be active an active parent.
DNA tests proved years ago that Bryce was not LeBron's father, but Bryce believed the tests had been tampered with.
After several attempts to collect money from LeBron, finally the case has been settled once and for all...
From TMZ
Leicester Bryce Stovell sued LBJ and his mother Gloria last year ... claiming they defamed him, blocked him from making money -- and tampered with paternity test results that showed he was NOT LeBron's father.
Now, a Washington, DC judge has dismissed all 8 claims in Stovell's lawsuit. In the docs, the court said Stovell had insufficient facts to support his claims, and -- among other things, "had not identified any damages."
As for Stovell's belief he could have earned big money -- the court said, "Apparently Stovell believes that companies are willing to pay him for being the father of LeBron James." Not shockingly ... the court once again said Stovell has no proof to back that claim.
Stovell -- a lawyer who claims he knocked up Gloria after a one-night stand -- tells TMZ he still thinks there is "a likelihood" he's LeBron's biological pop ... and he wants to retake a DNA test.
He also says he might appeal the dismissal.
