## Key points

- Martinez has primary physical custody of Maceo for now.
- Berry retains joint legal custody and a deciding vote.
- The judge dissolved a temporary restraining order.

## Summary

Olivier Martinez has been awarded primary physical custody of his and Halle Berry’s 13-year-old son, Maceo, and Berry has lost overnight visits, according to reports. The decision follows allegations by Martinez that Berry physically abused their son, which she denies; the custody arrangement is due to be reconsidered next month.

Berry retains joint legal custody and the deciding vote if the pair cannot agree, her representative said. The judge also rejected Martinez’s request for a domestic violence restraining order and dissolved a temporary order, which Berry’s lawyer welcomed. The former couple previously shared custody equally.
