Alec Baldwin looses cool in court

Baldwin Looses Cool in Court August 25, 2004

Alec Baldwin showed up in Los Angeles family court Wednesday to tie up some loose ends in his ongoing custody dispute with ex-wife Kim Basinger, who was not present. Recently, "CJ" showed you the divorce papers of the ex-couple, which testify to the bitterness of the negotiations. Today, things turned explosive, and only "CJ" has the details.

After earlier court appearances, Baldwin typically high-tailed it, literally running away from the crush of press outside. Today in court, the star fidgeted in his chair and told the judge he wanted to be heard. The judge, however, said the lawyers would do the talking. We're told that a frustrated Baldwin began talking anyway -- and talking loudly. Neal Hersh, Basinger's lawyer, rose up and objected, and the judge saw things Hersh's way.

Attorney John Ellis, who was in the courtroom on a different matter, gave us the details of what happened next. "(Baldwin's) conduct was completely inappropriate," Ellis told us. "He pounded his fist on the table several times and grabbed his belongings -- which consisted of a magazine, a newspaper, his dark glasses -- pulled back from his seat very quickly, went through the swinging doors, slammed them open, went through the back door, slammed through that and was gone."

Outside, we saw an angry Baldwin leaving the courthouse. Apparently, the custody issues are still unresolved. Alec's lawyer had no comment on the incident.

Baldwin's Courtroom Blow Up

"Cooler" star Alec Baldwin lost his cool in court Wednesday, during his ongoing custody battle with his ex-wife, Kim Basinger. "CJ" has the blow by blow, in a story you'll only see here.

He's an angry bitter man. I could see that on O'Reilly's show last week. He had a great career and a gorgeous wife, and he couldn't hold on to either of them.

The fact that Bush is President contributes to his anger and bitterness too. Suck it up, has-been boy.

Why do liberal celebrities bother getting married?

They only get divorced.

Then married again.

Then divorced.

Liberal?!?

. . . Baldwin began talking anyway -- and talking loudly . . .

That and pounding his fist on the table were definitely worthy of a contempt charge. What kind of namby-pamby judge is this? I'd have had the punk bound and gagged.

If I had a career that ended on Hollywood Squares
and my ex was kickin' my butt in court
and she didn't even have to show up to do it,

well.. Boohooo, Baldwin you freak!!

You should go to your own house, rip yourself out of bed, drag yourself outside and stone yourself to death. THen, after you'r dead, go back and pull everyone else out of the house and stone them to death too.

Oh wait, that was what you said everyone else should do to Henry Hyde, silly me, never mind.

BASINGER AND BALDWIN BATTLE OVER IRELAND PICTURE


KIM BASINGER and her ex-husband ALEC BALDWIN are embroiled in another bitter battle over a photo of their daughter IRELAND.

Both want the picture as part of a custody deal, but only one shot of the little girl exists and Alec's attorney VICKI GREENE insists her client wants it.

Baldwin currently has the photo hanging in his New York home and Basinger insists she'll only move furniture that belongs to her out of his penthouse if he hands over the portrait of her daughter.

Baldwin wants his ex-wife's possessions out of his house, so he can revamp the property and fit it with new furnishings.

Authorities in New York have ordered the warring couple's attorneys to find out if the photo can be duplicated well enough to keep both parties happy.

Not good behavior especially for a "custody" hearing.

A little more client management is needed from the attorney.

Liberal credo is that they are above the system, they "create" the systems for peasants but they don't have to abide by it.

He's still here?

When GWB wins AGAIN, Alec will move overseas. And this time, doggone it, HE MEANS IT!

I feel for their kid. On one hand, I really detest Alec Baldwin and all he's mouthed off about, I don't mind hearing that he's having some problems. But I hate to hear about a child being caught up in his troubles even more than I hate to think that he has actually reproduced. Poor kid.

I agree
And the poor child will be very short on hugs and very long on pocket money.

Touch is the most fundamental sense. A baby experiences it, all over, before he is born and long before he learns to use sight, hearing, or taste, and no human being ever ceases to need it. Keep your children short on pocket money -- but long on hugs.

For someone as shy and quiet as Bassinger, how did she marry this egomaniacal brut. He called for Hyde's killing, I wonder what threats he makes to her.
