Whitney Purvis has avoided arrest in her ongoing child support case after making a substantial payment ordered by a judge, as reported by TMZ.

According to court documents obtained by TMZ, the “16 and Pregnant” alum was on the verge of arrest after the court found she was over $23K behind on child support for her children — Weston Jr. and River — with ex-partner Weston Gosa.

The judge had ordered Purvis to be taken into custody unless she paid a $4K lump sum purge payment to avoid jail time. Court documents now indicate she paid the full amount, leading to the judge rescinding the order before any arrest occurred.

Purvis is still obligated to continue paying $353 per month in current child support, plus $20 per month toward the arrears, along with additional processing fees.

We reported earlier that Purvis was previously in police custody after being arrested on a felony involuntary manslaughter charge related to an alleged fatal overdose. Police claimed she intentionally distributed Tranq, a mixture of fentanyl and xylazine, which they allege caused the death of John Mark Harris from a toxic overdose.

She also faces two additional drug charges, including possession with intent to distribute. The arrest occurred just weeks after the tragic death of her teenage son, Weston Jr.
