She claims he’s used soccer as a bargaining chip in custody talks, dismissed therapy for Maceo and co-parenting sessions, and failed to stick to agreed custody schedules.<\/p>\n
\u201c[Martinez’s] actions and lack of cooperation with respect to Maceo’s psychological and educational needs have been detrimental to Maceo’s health and welfare,\u201d the papers state. \u201cRespondent’s refusal to allow early interventions have caused Maceo to fall further behind in school, caused Maceo’s acting out behaviors to worsen, and caused further damage to Maceo’s and Petitioner’s relationship.\u201d<\/p>\n
The documents also claim Martinez has been talking about the custody fight in front of their son, which their original divorce deal banned.<\/p>\nOlivier Martinez is seen in Los Angeles, CA. 6\/21\/18.

The ex-couple finalized their divorce last year after an eight-year legal battle. At the time, Berry was paying nearly $8,000 monthly in child support for Maceo. She also had to pay Martinez 4.3% of any income over $2 million to cover Maceo’s private school fees and all his extracurricular activities.<\/p>\n
