Jaycee Dugard's Biological Father to Petition Court to Avoid "Terror" of Process Server

Jaycee Dugard's biological father Ken Slayton will hold a news conference with his lawyer Gloria Allred on Friday to respond to a recent highly-critical statement issued by Jaycee's family spokesperson, RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively.

Jaycee has no wish to see Slayton according to a statement released by Nancy Seltzer on Wednesday. Seltzer, a long-time Hollywood publicist, represents the Dugard family and contended that Slayton is attempting to petition a court to establish paternity. She said the family wants to avoid the "terror" of a process server.

The Dugard family statement - titled "DNA Does Not A Family Make" - was highly critical of Slayton and asserted that he had shown "no interest" in Jaycee until now. "It is now Jaycee Dugard's turn to express her feelings and she has no interest," the statement read.

Now Slayton, with his high-powered attorney Allred by his side, will respond at 10:30 am PT Friday in Los Angeles. Slayton will address "the Dugard family press statement which affirmed that Mr. Slayton is Jaycee's father, but then attacked him with what he believes are misleading and untrue statements about him and his efforts to establish a relationship with his daughter," he says.

As RadarOnline.com has previously reported, Jaycee was kidnapped by Phil Garrido and held captive for 18 years. Garrido is the father of her two daughters. Jaycee and her daughters

have lived with her biological mother since being rescued last year.
