According to new legal documents, Jesse Williams is getting his monthly child support payments slashed after his income plummeted.

The docs say Jesse's payments have been "temporarily modified" to $6,413 after last month's request from the actor.

He asked for his monthly payments to be reduced since his switch from TV to Broadway profoundly affected his bottom line.

The judge denied Aryn Drake-Lee's request to reduce Jesse's physical time with the kids.

This has been one of the most bitter divorces in Hollywood.

The two will be back in court once Jesse ends his show in the summer.
