closeA Wake County District Court judge has ordered Brad Cooper to not sell off any of his assets until the judge can determine what Cooper should pay in child support to his two daughters.
Brad Cooper, 35, is charged with first-degree murder in the death of his wife, Nancy. He is being held in the Wake County jail.
Last month, a judge awarded custody of Cooper’s two daughters to Nancy Cooper’s family.

Nancy Cooper’s parents and sister will be asking a judge to require Cooper to help pay child support for his daughters.
The restraining order forbids Cooper from selling off his assets until a payment plan can be negotiated. He is not to sell the Lochmere home he shared with his family at anything less than fair market value.
According to a motion filed by Nancy Cooper’s family, Brad Cooper is still drawing a salary from Cisco Systems, where he worked in Research Triangle Park since 2000. Nancy Cooper's family believes that Brad Cooper instructed his family to dispose of and liquidate his assets.
A judge will hear more on the matter at a hearing Nov. 21.
