According to New Idea, the judge assigned to Brad Pitt and Jolie’s case requested the exes file details of every weapon they currently possess. They also need to account for the weapons that they previously owned.
“It’s a real nightmare. California is a very anti-gun state and highly regulated. They’re going to have to account for where, when, and how they acquired each weapon, which child is aware of what one and what kind of precautions have they taken to keep the kids safe,” the source said.
The insider also said that Pitt and Jolie have both been very responsible gun owners. And they have also taken their kids to the shooting range and have sent them on gun safety courses.
But the A-listers are still, allegedly, required to provide full accountability of the weapons at their respective homes and vehicles.
“It’s going to slow things down in what’s already been a slow-drip torture of a divorce,” the source said.
Last week, it was reported that Brad Pitt and Jolie’s custody battle was once again slowed down after the actress decided to part way with her lawyer.
“Ange has fought tooth and nail to get what she wants. If she believes one of her lawyers needs to go, she won’t hesitate to pull the trigger,” the source said.
According to reports, it is still unclear if Jolie was the one that fired her lawyer or if it was the lawyer’s decision to quit. But two years ago, the Maleficent: Mistress of Evil star found herself in a similar situation when her divorce lawyer, Laura Wasser, quit the case.
According to TMZ, Wasser’s desire to provide Jolie and Pitt joint custody of their children didn’t match with what the actress really wanted. Jolie, reportedly, wanted to kill any relationship Pitt has with their children.
The publication also claimed that Jolie already hired another law firm to take over when Wasser dropped the case.
Back then, another source told E! News that Pitt and Jolie’s relationship remains hostile. And while the actress can travel to London for short periods of time, she can’t leave the country with her kids for several months. After all, the judge previously ruled that Brad Pitt also needs to spend ample time with his kids.
