## Summary

Halle Berry attended a Los Angeles court hearing in her ongoing custody dispute with ex-husband Olivier Martinez. The case centres on their 13-year-old son, Maceo, and includes serious allegations that Berry has denied.

Martinez obtained a temporary domestic violence restraining order earlier this month after alleging Berry physically abused Maceo in September; Berry disputes the claims. Their daughter, Nahla, was scheduled to testify remotely and has filed a declaration saying she has never seen Berry physically abuse her brother. Both parents have testified, and Berry has asked the court for sole legal custody over Maceo’s education and healthcare, including mental-health treatment.
