Cowboys receiver Dez Bryant has resolved one of the lawsuits against him arising from the purchase of jewelry for which he allegedly didn’t pay. In the other one, the lawyer for the plaintiff claims that someone forged Bryant’s signature.

According to WFAA.com, a motion was filed claiming that the signature that purports to be Bryant’s on answers to written questions regarding the alleged debts isn’t Bryant’s.

The jeweler seeks a variety of sanctions, including $15,000 in attorneys’ fees.

But that’s a drop in the bucket. The jeweler seeks roughly $600,000 from Bryant.
