Gibson’s Lawyer Slams Grigorieva’s Claims

Court Watch

Mel Gibson’s lawyer slammed Oksana Grigorieva’s claims that she had been treated cruelly by Mel and that he hadn’t been paying child support.  His lawyer actually termed her claims as “sensational allegations” because they were meant to simply tarnish his name in the media.


Right now, the ex-couple is battling over visitation rights.  Oksana received a restraining order last week causing Gibson’s lawyers to ask for a modification so the star can visit his daughter and spend time with her.


Kolodny, Gibson’s lawyer, told TMZ, “Oksana’s deceitful conduct in trying to terminate Mel’s access to his daughter continues.”


Last week, Oksana filed a restraining order against Gibson, and began spreading the rumor that he was not paying any child support.  The actor already has a tarnished image in the media due to past mistakes he made such as the anti-Semitic remarks.  It will be interesting to see how this whole debacle resolves between this Hollywood couple.

A divorce in Ohio is filed when there is typically “fault” by one of the parties and party not at “fault” seeks to end the marriage. A court in Ohio may grant a divorce for the following reasons:
• Willful absence of the adverse party for one year
• Adultery
• Extreme cruelty
• Fraudulent contract
• Any gross neglect of duty
• Habitual drunkenness
• Imprisonment in a correctional institution at the time of filing the complaint
• Procurement of a divorce outside this state by the other party

Additionally, there are two “no-fault” basis for which a court may grant a divorce:
• When the parties have, without interruption for one year, lived separate and apart without cohabitation
• Incompatibility, unless denied by either party

However, whether or not the the court grants the divorce for “fault” or not, in Ohio the party not at “fault” will not get a bigger slice of the marital property.
