Stevie B Returns To Court In Mass. Child Support Fight

SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (AP) — Singer Stevie B is in a Massachusetts court for a hearing on what the state says is more than $400,000 in unpaid child support.

The singer, best known for the 1990 hit "Because I Love You (The Postman Song)," was arrested Sept. 30 after performing at the MassMutual Center in Springfield.

He spent several days in jail and was released after he made an $11,000 payment.

Stevie B, whose full name is Steven Bernard Hill, told The Associated Press he disputes the amount an Agawam woman claims he owes in support for their two daughters.

His lawyer said previously that the singer planned to present documentation of all the payments he has made during a court hearing Friday in Hampden Probate and Family Court.

Stevie B lives in Las Vegas.
