Anson Williams is facing legal action from his former spouse over allegations that he has failed to fulfill financial obligations outlined in their divorce settlement. Jackie Williams filed court documents Friday seeking to compel the actor to pay what she claims are tens of thousands of dollars in overdue payments.
According to court documents obtained by TMZ, Jackie Williams is pursuing multiple categories of alleged non-payments. The filing itemizes over $15,000 for six different life insurance premiums, over $2,000 for DGA pension funds, and over $1,300 for AFTRA pension funds. Additionally, she claims over $16,000 for misappropriations or unauthorized uses of corporate funds and $4,000 for unauthorized self-payments.
The financial demands extend beyond direct payments. Jackie Williams is also requesting that her ex-husband reactivate their corporate AmEx account and transfer her half of the rewards benefits associated with the card.
Jackie Williams maintains that the divorce judgment from 2023 explicitly addressed these financial matters. She alleges that Anson Williams has been delaying action on certain obligations despite the clear terms of their settlement.
In her filing, Jackie Williams states she has attempted to contact her former husband regarding the outstanding money multiple times throughout this year without resolution. Having exhausted direct communication, she is now seeking judicial intervention to enforce the divorce terms.
The court documents reveal financial strain on Jackie Williams' side, with her claiming she cannot afford to continue paying lawyers in this litigation. She suggests her ex-husband is aware of her financial limitations and believes this knowledge factors into his lack of response to her communications.
Beyond the specific payments outlined in her filing, Jackie Williams is requesting that the court order Anson Williams to cover several of her legal fees incurred in pursuing this matter.
The couple divorced in 2020 after 30 years of marriage. Anson Williams is known for his role on the television series 'Happy Days.'
