The private judge may have been thrown off Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's case, but Breaking Celebrity News is told the Once Upon a Time In Hollywood actor isn't giving up on getting joint custody of his children.
Pitt's legal team tells us that "the facts haven't changed," despite Judge John W. Ouderkirk being kicked off for not disclosing his ties to the actor's attorneys.
“The appeals court ruling was based on a technical procedural issue," a spokesperson for Pitt says in a statement to Breaking Celebrity News. "The facts haven’t changed. There is an extraordinary amount of factual evidence which led the judge—and the many experts who testified—to reach their clear conclusion about what is in the children’s best interests."
Making it clear Pitt is ready to fight for the kids he shares with Jolie, the statement ends with one powerful note.
"We will continue to do what’s necessary legally based on the detailed findings of what’s best for the children," his attorney concluded.
As Breaking Celebrity News reported, A California appeals court has disqualified the private judge used in the former couple's nasty divorce case, finding he failed to disclose his business relationships with Pitt's lawyers.
