A Brazilian federal judge has issued a ruling making it possible for David Goldman to have more access to his son Sean in the ongoing custody battle over the boy, Goldman's attorney said Friday.
The Brazilian court said Thursday it will allow Goldman to visit with his son unsupervised every week from Monday morning through Saturday evening. The problem is he must do it on Brazilian soil, not in New Jersey where he lives.
The boy's Brazilian family has already threatened to take the matter back to the Brazilian Supreme Court, which has ruled it does not have jurisdiction.
This comes several days after reports that Sean's stepfather hired a private psychiatrist to question Sean about whether he wants to stay in Brazil or return home to New Jersey.
According to a court transcript, Sean told a psychologist he wants to stay with his stepfamily in Brazil rather than return to live in the United States with his biological father.
In the transcript released Wednesday by the Brazilian family's lawyers, Sean Goldman told the psychologist that if he is sent back to New Jersey to be with David Goldman, he will "break down totally."
