The custody war for their love child Tripp heats up as Bristol Palin slams baby daddy Levi Johnston.
In legal papers, Levi said it’s not possible for him to pay $1,750 a month in child support for their baby Tripp, as Bristol requested, because his income is "erratic."
But his lawyers said Levi is hopeful for a good career in "entertainment" (beyond posing nude, natch).
But then Bristol released a statement through her legal team to RadarOnline.com:
"Bristol is hopeful that Levi will obtain work in 2010. She is encouraged that he acknowledged in court his obligation to pay child support and that he acknowledged paying $4,400 in the last 14 months.
"Bristol expects to mediate a child visitation schedule with Levi that balances Tripp’s need to be with his father with Levi’s need to travel and seek work."
In other words: where’s the money, dude!?
