High Profile Custody Battles: Charlie Sheen vs. Brooke Mueller

Charlie Sheen and his ex-wife, actress Brooke Mueller, have recently settled yet another custody dispute concerning their children. Mueller initiated the custody dispute with a complaint alleging that Sheen exercised parenting time with the children while under the influence of alcohol and exercised excessive corporal punishment. Additionally, the former couple's custody battle involved a dispute between Mueller and Sheen regarding whether Mueller should be allowed to relocate with the children to another state. A court appearance was scheduled in the case, but prior to the hearing, Mueller and Sheen came to an agreement for Sheen's visitation to be supervised in the future. The settlement also included an agreement that Mueller would be allowed to move with the children within a 50 mile radius of Sheen's home.

Although the parties to this child custody dispute are celebrities, the issues involved in this high profile child custody battle are actually quite common. Allegations of abuse and inappropriate conduct during visitation are unfortunately common themes during custody battles, and supervised visitation is just one of the options that may be used to resolve this issue. If you are concerned about your co-parents conduct during visitation, or if you are concerned that your co-parent plans to move out of state with your children, please contact one of our friendly and helpful child custody professionals at Meriwether & Tharp. We will be more than glad to assist you.
