Quick Summary

Olivier Martinez is seeking to have their 13-year-old son, Maceo, testify in court about an alleged altercation involving his mother, Halle Berry. In legal filings, Martinez argues that the boy's testimony will reveal the truth of what happened on September 26th and counters that Berry's attempt to involve her daughter Nahla Aubry is inappropriate and biased. Last month, a judge granted Martinez temporary primary custody after he filed for a restraining order against Berry over accusations of physical abuse towards Maceo.

Story summary

Halle Berry’s custody battle with ex-partner Olivier Martinez escalated as a judge is set to rule on whether their 13-year-old son, Maceo, can testify in court. In recent filings, Martinez argued that it would be in Maceo's best interest for him to address the court and share what he experienced during an incident on September 26th. Berry has denied Martinez’s claims of her jumping on and choking their son. Last month, Martinez was granted primary custody after filing a temporary restraining order against Berry. Berry counters that Martinez is trying to insert his daughter from another relationship into the case, which she deems inappropriate. The legal drama continues as both parties vie for control over how to proceed with Maceo’s welfare and testimony in court.
