Claim: Nate Dogg, who died in 2011, is the subject of a claim on his estate by the mother of one of his children
TMZ reports that Shereda Williams, reported to be the mother of one of Nate Dogg's children, filed a creditor's claim against the rapper's estate, alleging it owes her $339,924 in unpaid child support.
The star, real name Nathaniel Dwayne Hale, was allegedly supposed to pay Shereda $4,358 a month, but she claims he never made a single payment.
Their child is reported to have been born in 2006.
Shereda says the estate now owes her the outstanding balance, including the payments which have accumulated since the death of the rapper.
However, Nate Dogg is reported to have been nearly broke when he died in March 2011 from complications following multiple strokes aged 41.
In December 2007, the singer was left paralysed on one side of his body after a massive stroke and was struck by a second one in September 2008.
Nate Dogg started his career with Snoop Dogg, now known as Snoop Lion, and Warren G in the early 1990s as a rap trio in Long Beach called 213.
As well as Snoop, Nate Dogg also collaborated with musicians Eminem, Ludacris and Tupac Shakur.
Nate Dogg first found fame guesting on Dr Dre’s album The Chronic before his hit Regulate with Warren G reached the number five position in the charts in 1994.

His friend Snoop Dogg wrote on Twitter via his death: ‘I love you buddy. You will always be with me forever and a day. You put the ‘G’ in ‘G funk’, you put the ‘1’ in ‘213’ and you put your stamp on everybody you ever did it with.
