Jolie’s team moved to stop them and in court papers obtained by Page Six, they stated: “This sort of gamesmanship, a last-ditch effort by a celebrity litigant seeking special treatment, is not what this Court’s limited review resources are for.”

“There is nothing to see or review here. There is no issue meeting this Court’s rigorous standards for, or worthy of, review,” they added.

Angelina Jolie – Brad Pitt Awarded Joint Custody

When Pitt was awarded joint custody of their five minor children – Maddox, 20, is no longer part of the custody case – Jolie vowed to fight the ruling.

At the time, the ‘Maleficent” actress claimed that three of her children were willing to testify in court but were blocked from doing so by John Ouderkirk. Ouderkirk was the private judge working on the ex couple’s case. He also officiated their wedding in 2014.

Not long after Ouderkirk’s ruling, Jolie was able to overturn the case and remove Ouderkirk by appealing that the judge has had former dealings with Pitt’s attorneys which he did not disclose.

When Brad’s team moved to counteract it, Jolie’s team was firm in stating that Ouderkirk violated the clear mandate of the Code of Judicial Ethics.

“There is no serious question that a privately compensated judge who, without full disclosure, has secured a favorable repeat customer relationship with one litigant’s counsel must be disqualified,” the filing read.
