'Family Matters' Star Darius McCrary Ordered to Pay $29 in Child Support

Former "Family Matters" star Darius McCrary has fallen on extremely tough times.
According to documents filed in Los Angeles County and obtained by The Blast, a proposed child support order for McCrary is requiring him to pay Tammy Brawner, the mother of his two-year-old daughter Zoey, just $29 per month in child support.
The man who once played the lovable Eddie Winslow most recently appeared on seven episodes of Lee Daniels' TV show, "Star," but apparently has not worked since.
He previously told the court that he was having a hard time finding work and wasn't even able to afford the required visitation monitor to see his child. Brawner and McCrary have previously filed restraining orders against each other in what has turned out to be a volatile breakup.
Darius McCrary's required $29 per month payment is based off his reported income of $462 per month. The county noted it applied a "low-income adjustment" to cut him a break.
However, the actor is also required to pay for 50% of Zoey's health and medical costs. He has a chance to oppose the proposed order from the county which was scheduled to become active June 1.
According to his IMDB, McCrary has a role in a film called "Way Out of Bounds," which is due out next year. It's unclear if the payment from that film will affect his child support obligations.
