Court disqualifies judge in Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt's divorce case

An appeals court on Friday disqualified a private judge being used by Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt in their ongoing divorce case.

"Judge Ouderkirk’s ethical breach, considered together with the information disclosed concerning his recent professional relationships with Pitt’s counsel, might cause an objective person, aware of all the facts, reasonably to entertain a doubt as to the judge’s ability to be impartial. Disqualification is required," the court ruled. The decision means that the custody fight over the couple's five minor children, which was nearing an end, could be starting over.
