New details of Brad Pitt's struggle for joint custody of his children with Angelina Jolie have become known.
The actor filed a petition with the Los Angeles Supreme Court with a request to remove the judge who replaced John Ouderkirk, who gave the parents the joint right to bring up the heirs. After such a decision, Ouderkirk was removed by Jolie herself.
The Court of Appeal unanimously refused to tolerate the ethical violations of the private judge who was considering custody and rightly overturned that judge's decisions. Mr Pitt's lawyer's petition to the California Supreme Court demonstrates how they cling to this private judge who showed bias and refused the evidence required by law. It is worrying that, with full knowledge of the unethical behavior and no prior disclosure of their financial relationship, Pitt's attorney will seek to reinstate this private judge. Miss Jolie hopes that Mr. Pitt will join her instead, focusing on the needs of children, their voices, and healing, Just Jared noted referring to the actress's attorney.
Pitt's own lawyers intend to defend the actor's interests and his right to raise children:
After more than four years of controversial litigation, every day of which harmed the children and their father, an important and balanced decision on custody will be completely reversed as a result of an administrative error, which is completely not related to the substance of the custody dispute itself, they said.
It is believed that Jolie had long known about the connections between the judge and the representatives of the ex-spouse and was only waiting for the moment to remove the judge, thereby inflicting a blow on Brad's position.
