Sandra Bullock Part of Husband's Custody Battle

Filed under: Legal Matters > Sandra Bullock

wenn686426jj.jpg

Sandra Bullock and husband Jesse James have been taking care of James' 5-year-old daughter Sunny from his previous marriage to porn star Janine Lindemulder.

Lindemulder has just been released from prison after serving six months for tax evasion, but now she's looking to regain custody of little Sunny.

Sounds like quite an unstable environment for a child!

Lindemulder is currently living in a halfway house until the end of the year - at which time she can pursue custody of her daughter. In preparation for this, dad Jesse has already asked a judge to rule on whether or not Lindemulder is fit to raise their child.

He explains in an official court statement:

“Good cause exists for the court to conduct a review to determine if [the girl] will be safe with [Lindemulder]. She should be restrained from allowing the child around pornographers, drug addicts, guns and firearms, felons and other unsafe environments.”

James left Lindemulder back in 2002 for Sandra when his wife was 7 months pregnant with their daughter. Lindemulder is blaming the stress of that situation on her inability to pay her taxes.

No doubt it was stressful, but you can't avoid the IRS! Janine now owes nearly $300,000 in taxes!

In all likelihood it will come down to their respective incomes and James undoubtedly wins that battle with his motorcycle empire - not to mention he's married to one of the highest-paid actresses in Hollywood!

Good luck, Janine, but we don't see this one swinging in your favor.

    Re: elmy – idiot.
    anyway, what the f? He left the mother of his unborn child for a high payed "a-list type" actress? He left his porn actress wife? He cheated on his porn actress wife. What a dick. poor kid. nice roll model, pops-do what you want. a-hole.



  3. 3

    this is totally unrelated but i find it hilarious how you always slag off Joss Stone (why?!?) but are happy to take her money to advertise her (amazing!) new album "Colour Me Free" lol
    i guess you



  4. 4

    It's so sad. No one brings up the fact that he's a cheating lame wad. Oooh, she's a porn star, oooh just out of prison. Yeah, another case of the douchey guy trying his best to make himself look like the hero. If he gave a shit about that kid he's realize that she needs BOTH parents. His show sucks, and her movies suck.



  5. 5

    Best Post! Love knowing Ol' Sandy's into orgy kink. Face it, would anybody with any self respect whatsoever, steal the husband of a high income whore? No, Princess Grace, they would not.



  6. 6

    You know what ?
    Although Jesse should have NO problem gaining custody of his daughter over his drug addict money laundering ex but unfortunetly we live in a fucked up Country where what's right doesn't matter anymore…
    All she has to do is SUCK a few DICKS and she'll probably WIN…..



  7. 7

    Unstable because she didn't pay her taxes? You're such a moralizing twit Perez!



  8. 8

    i also find it funny how you cut the end off my post calling you a hippclit . . . i mean hypocrite and tell people to buy Joss Stone's amazing new album :P
    maybe your hand slipped as it reached for annother cookie or does your retarded sister edit as well as write now? lol



  9. 9

    What kind of mother did he expect exactly? When you have kids with a porn "actress" you sort of take your chances right? He seems like a dirt bag too, I don't understand Sandra Bullocks attraction to this guy, if I went out on a date with someone and they said they used to be married to a porn chick, that would be our last date.



  10. 10

    He probably should have thought about that BEFORE he knocked up a porn star. Trying to take the moral high ground now is just hypocritical. You make a baby with a porn star, you deal with the consequences. What a douche.



  11. 11

    Kids belong with their mother even if their of lower caliber acting and have less $$$. How is tax invasion dangerous to a child? And who the hell are you to judge?



  12. 12

    I didn't know Sandra married a guy who left his pregnant wife for her. What goes around comes around. I am actually on the porn stars side. No, I am on the little girls side.



  13. 13

    Damn,this dudes living a charmed life.He dumps his knocked up porn star wife for Sandra Bullock and gets to keep the kid.I guess cheating REALLY does pay off!



  14. 14

    What an upstanding guy: left his wife when she was 7 months pregnant, began an affair with his current wife before divorcing his previous wife, had absolutely NOTHING to do with Sunny until she was almost 4 years old, and ratted his ex out to the IRS to wiggle through his own tax quagmire. And now Janine's career is questionable…even though he knew full well what she did for a living when he married and impregnated her.



  15. 15

    And by the way, Janine is not a felon; she was convicted of misdemeanor tax evasion.



  16. 16

    Love her!!! She's an awesome person!



  17. 17

    Re: _Alice_ – Hi Alice!



  18. 18

    oh give me a break you fucking retards, she's a god damn porn star, who gives a fuck about her feelings. that relationship was already OVER when she got pregnant. he wasn't cheating, none of them cared anymore. and who the hell would grant custody to this woman whose fresh out of jail. yea real stable environment.



  19. 19

    What I don't understand is…no matter how bad a divorce is, why would you let the mother of your child go to jail over taxes? Way to fuck up your child emotionally…



  20. 20

    Im looking at Janine naked pics, what a piece of ass! However even though he cheated, he seems more stable than she, and she bangs wayyyy too many dudes.

    "Whiskey bottles, and brand new cars
    Oak tree youre in my way
    Theres too much coke and too much smoke
    Look whats going on inside you
    Ooooh that smell
    Cant you smell that smell
    Ooooh that smell
    The smell of death surrounds you Janine !!! "



  21. 21

    what a jerk, not getting snipped after two kids (and he STILL isn't snipped, the ass)….they should share custody. kids need both parents, even when one is an ex-con and the other is a….er….well, I don't know what he is. he looks like something reptilian (although I like reptiles)…the kid needs to be with her sibs. they should share custody of ALL THREE KIDS.



  22. 22

    I love him. I don't love him with Sandra Bullock, but I do love him.



  23. 23

    Let me see if I have some of you people right - Jessie is an ASSHOLE because he slept around a couple of times while he was married? Uh, Janine was a drug addict that fucked DOZENS of different guys FOR A LIVING.



  24. 24

    she should not lose her daughter because she is not rich. And cheaters should not be left to raise their child…..maybe if they want their own child then Sandra can buy one like most celebrities



  25. 25

    I dont see what Sandra sees in the weirdo. He has no personality he talks like a retard, he's so fuckin disgusting. Eww!!



  26. 26

    speaking of being at ease. anything close to you're circle, because of violent instructions and worry that if and then that everyone knew (its fine look i FUCKEDDD UP I WANTED TO DIE BECAUSE OF THAT FACT NOT ANYTHING ELSE THAT FACT) . of course not. outside of the circle, i was so at ease i had anythign i wanted from any girl i met but i didn't do anything that went against anybody i cared about. and after i saw you i peaced them all. even knowing that i'd never have you. cuz it all appeared as gross as it all was. a lot of immature ones made up lies because they couldn't take that i just wanted absolutely zero to do with them after that. infact saintly goes for more then girls it goes for what you're still hinting at here or else i don't think i would have been gifted all the crazy shit that i was by the only thing i care about the most. God. you're my kripy but he's my owner



  27. 27

    un at ease. i have a rep, outside the circle that holds me as the fuck up i was as the most calm intelligent, well spoken person. i wanted to die, cuz i fucked up not because i wasn't going to have something. i told all the bitches to peace out even though i knew i'd never have you. why cuz i saw truth when i saw you even though it had nothing to do with having you cuz i didnt think i ever would which is why my actions the last few days, i never thought i would was engraved. but seeing you showed me how gross it all was what everyone is into in modern society. they all made up lies cuz they didn't get why i just peaced them. the above yea i stopped that too and all its brothers somehow just like i explained i did and thats when my faith was repayed. but it was seperate from you. i didn't htink i'd ever have you until big pun



  28. 28

    and like you read it doesn't matter. thats why it didn't matter if i checked right away. i just didn't wanna waste energy on something i couldn't control cuz the world needs my energy. i had given you sooooo much energy friday..into sat



  29. 29

    Back to the set Janine.



  30. 30

    Re: thinkitwasamuleshapedpool – What are you smoking? WTF>



  31. 31

    The child should go to the parent who is morally and financially stable to raise them.
    Sure, dad cheated. But mom gets stuffed every day in every which way and she's broke as hell.
    The choice is obvious.



  32. 32

    Stop making excuses. Pay your taxes, Porn Girl. The rest of us do.



  33. 33

    I like Sandra Bullock, a lot, but her hubby is a major douche.



  34. 34

    Wow~forgot Sandra was a homewrecker.

  35. Moron says – reply to this


    35

    Wow,I wonder what Sandra saw in that man…it speaks volumes about her.That man is a douche and should pay child support so the kid could stay with her mother.



  36. 36

    umm fox news reported this like 3 days ago…and this is suppose to be the celeb gossip site…yeah my ass



  37. 37

    that's the mother of your child. he should help her… what a dick

  38. 6one9 says – reply to this


    38

    Love her!! Hope they take full custody!!!!!!



  39. 39

    Re: derek1 – no probably unstable bc shes living in a halfway house you jackass



  40. 40

    He gets what he wants bc he can lay mad pipe.



  41. 41

    Jesse James has is on his third marriage, has 3 kids, left his second wife when she was 7 months pregnant to be with Sandra. Had a child why in the fuck with a porn star would have made any woman with common sense run for the hills. I gave Sandra way too much credit. I wonder if she had him tested? this child has two fucked up parents. Please a woman who fucks and sucks for a living for the world to see has no business having or raising children. Jesse ain't no better. Sandra is dickmatized and the little girl is screwed either way. Nope. No winners here people!!!



  42. 42

    She is out of jail and getting her life back together, just because she does not have JJ & SB's $$$$ does not make her an unfit parent.

    Sandra Bullock is not so nice as the press makes her out to be, and seeing how she was cheating with her that does say much for either of them.

    I'm sure the press is going to rip her a new one, because she has not had a baby of her own with JJ etc.



  43. 43

    hmm, I though Sunny was actually a boy.



  44. 44

    I'm siding with the ex wife, hopefully she will take custody and Sandra Bollocks WILL BE PAYING FOR HER NEW LIFESTYLE.
    What kind of man leaves his pregnant wife and what kind of woman marries the guy afterwards ???
    Pathetic.



  45. 45

    Ill never understand by Bullock married Jesse James; although, I hear she's a real bitch in real life.



  46. 46

    If the child was born in 2002, there is no way she is 5 years old.



  47. 47

    SO HE ABANDONS THE GIRL IN THE WOMB AND WATCHES HER FOR LESS THAN A YEAR AND THEN SHOULD GET PATERNITY? I DON'T CARE WHAT HER MOTHER DID, HE WAS WITH HER WASN'T HE? IF SHE IS SUCH A BAD PERSON WHY DID HE HAVE A KID WITH HER? THIS IS BULLSHIT, THE KID BELONGS WITH HER MOTHER, HER FATHER ALREADY ABANDONED HER ONCE, AND I'M SURE HE WOULD DO IT AGAIN!



  48. 48

    They are so hot together. Ok, seriously. Just becuase "they" think they are so much better then this kids mom, doesn't give them the right to keep them apart. Parents do it everyday in a civil manner. Joint custody works just fine.



  49. 49

    Re: CalabasasHomeOwner – he knew what he was getting into and if she is so bad, why was he with her in the first place. She has three kids and he wants to rip this little girl away from them even though he abandoned her and didn't see her till she was 4 yrs. old. Real nice dad there!



  50. 50

    first and foremost, she left the porn industry before she married mr sandra bullock. he has 3 other children from his first marriage that he barely sees. he knew what kind of job janine had before he married her. and let's also point out that james failed to pay taxes and was fined for many things associating with west coast choppers. he just threw janine under the bus so he could look like the good guy. and he left janine when she was pregos, janine never cheated on him. if youre going to call her names for being a porn star but hes a hero after he cheated on his wife, then obviously she has the better set of morals between the two of them. if the state thinks janine is such an unfit mother why dont they take custody of her son? obviously shes a good mom who never abandoned her child like jesse did. i see it as sandra bullock doesnt want a kid of her own and since jesse already has kids, well why not raise that one. less leg work. and sandra bullock is no angel. she is a home wrecker. she very well knew jesse was a married man! now janine is free from jail and no she doesnt do drugs you morons. not everyone in the industry does drugs. and if jesse thought she did, why not ask for custody when the baby was born? oh right cause u were riding the coat tails of sandra bullock and abandoned your baby! totally forgot. sunny should be with her mom janine. and i hope janine wins and gets jesse for alot of child support.



  51. 51

    So it was OK for him to sleep with a x-porn actress just not good enough to raise his child. I am NOT a fan of porn but he does seem a little hypocritical. I don't know enough about the background and/or drug use to really comment further.



  52. 52

    Maybe - maybe not. If she finished her sentencing and completed all court orders and she is willing to provide a stable home she might get her back. A judge does not like to see the child away from their mother if possible. If the courts do rule in her favor she will be under a microscope from DCFS for a long time. If you notice the way this arrticle was written he isn't saying he will get custody or even is going to try to get it. He is saying he wants her evaluated and watched and checked out throughly. Just because she has tax problems is not enough to keep her from her child. As long as she provides for the child that is what the courts will look at of most importance. That's the way it is rather you or I or anyone else agree's. The judge can use some discretion but they still have to follow the law they can not make it up as they go along. Believe it or not they have guide lines and limitations they have to follow themselves.



  53. 53

    she's gross.
