Sevensidedcube.net reports of continuing developments in the Sandra Bullock, Jesse James case. It is foreseeable to a San Diego Certified Family Law Specialist that the ripples being caused in this case may open up another case. The report is that after the separation between Bullock and James, Jesse James continues to live with his children, ages 6, 12 and 15. Sandra Bullock lives with the child that she (and Jesse?) just adopted. Jesse's girlfriend (Michelle McGee) has two children of her own.
The report further states that Sandra Bullock has focused her residency attention to Austin Texas and that Jesse James was recently in Austin with a least one of his children. Sandra has filed the Bullock/James divorce in Austin. Will Jesse move to Austin seeking to maintain contact with his adopted child? In an earlier blog on this case, and Ms. Bullock's decision to file in Austin, Texas, I discussed the possible motives on her part involving child custody, child support and spousal support issues. In that blog we discussed the fault factors present in Texas law while California is a "no fault" state. Jesse has reportedly admitted fault in his divorce with Sandra.
Will Jesse's actions cause Michelle McGee to have a San Diego child custody case? Will Jesse's actions cause the mother of his children to file for a child custody modification motion against Jesse?
California family law provides that child custody orders may be modified. Therefore, Jesse's child custody rights may be changed (modified). They may be made more restrictive. The mother of Jesse's children may claim that Jesse's newly reported lifestyle, his reported girlfriends and legal conclusions that may be drawn as to the character of his reported girlfriends, negatively affect the health, education and welfare of these children in a significant way. She may seek complete custody of these children.
Might a child custody court rule against "the most hated man in the world"--see the video:
The point of this blog is that even though California is a “no fault” state when it comes to filing for a divorce (dissolution of marriage) or a legal separation, fault may be considered if a parent’s lifestyle places the children in harm.
