Chapter 10 - The Court Grants Full Custody And Property Rights
One week later, the family court judge in Manhattan reviewed the comprehensive evidence package submitted by Arthur Pendelton.
The courtroom was packed with media reporters covering the dramatic downfall of the prominent Westchester socialite family.
Judge Thomas adjusted his glasses, looking sternly down at Daniel and Evelyn sitting at the defense table in absolute disgrace.
“The evidence of financial fraud, child endangerment, and property usurpation is overwhelming and undisputed,” Judge Thomas announced.
“I hereby grant full physical and legal custody of minor child Noah Vance exclusively to petitioner mother Elena Vance,” he ruled.
Gasp ripples echoed through the gallery as the judge slammed his wooden gavel down with a sharp, echoing crack.
“Furthermore, the Westchester estate and all associated corporate holdings are permanently awarded to Elena Vance without division,” he added.
Daniel buried his face in his hands, weeping openly as his luxurious life vanished into thin air before the eyes of the public.
