Levi Johnston 'To Take Sarah Palin To Court' Over Child Custody
The teenager who fathered Sarah Palin's 10-month-old grandson has delivered a fresh blow to the former Republican vice presidential candidate by saying he will "definitely" take her to court to gain access to his child.
By Nick Allen in Los Angeles 30 Oct 2009
Levi Johnston, 19, who had a son called Tripp with Mrs Palin's eldest daughter Bristol, has been considering legal action for months but now says it is "inevitable" and that Mrs Palin is preventing him from seeing the boy. A court case over Tripp, during which Mr Johnston may make damaging allegations about Mrs Palin, could hamper any hopes she harbours of running for the White House in 2012.
"I'm up to the point where I can't see my kid again. I'm done. I'm sure we'll end up in court," Mr Johnston said in an interview with The Guardian today. "We're definitely going to court. They started letting me see him and everything was fine. But everything got bad again. So I said screw them. Bristol listens to her mom. Sarah says something, Bristol is going to follow."
Mr Johnston said there had been periods when he was able to see Tripp about once a week but at other times he has had almost no contact. He last saw his son several weeks ago, he said.
The public disclosure of Bristol's pregnancy during the 2008 US presidential election campaign came as an embarrassment to Mrs Palin's campaign. At the time Bristol was 17 and still at school.

His threats on TV will be seen by any Judge
He was getting into extortion on TV
He will be lucky if he does not end up in the Graybar Hotel
Why would he take Sarah to court and not the mother?
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
This ain’t about custody, it’s about another hit piece to take Sarah down by bad press and false accusations. His cances of winning in court are slim to none.
Sarah is about to release a best selling book, go on a speaking tour and stump for candidates in 2010. The libs can’t have this and have decided to bump her off once and for all with a big, juicy court smear. And the MSM will just jump all over this.
Who is paing Levi’s legal bills on this? Hmmmmmm?
Nail the peckerwood for his antics......
Based upon what I’ve read, Jesus would have taken the time to minister the individual.
He needs a theme song, remembered this from a Family Guy commercial...
Dance, Dance, Drop Your Pants.
Levi is seeking to extend his 15 minutes of fame. If it does go to trial, Levi will use the court to repeat his Vanity Fair article.
The court is exactly where this needs to be with all the apparent disfunction that has been displayed. I’m surprised it hasn’t been taken there already. The child doesn’t need to be placed in the middle like this but often times the courts have to settle disputes regarding parental rights.
The southern states seem to do better for the dads. Here in Ohio, it's a lost cause.
I can not imagine any judge allowing this to proceed- unless he files in California. He’d have to establish residency there.
Is he paying child support ?
I wonder who is behind him
You are exactly right. This hoopla is only helping Bristol, IMHO. She is home, BEING a good mother to her son, staying out of the spotlight, not shopping for her 10 minutes of fame. She is the DOER.
Levi is just setting himself up as a punk who would do anything for money; interviews, expose himself in a gay porn magazine, and God only knows what else. All of this is going on the record and can be used as evidence against his fitness for unsupervised visits, and rightly so. The Palins will do well to completely and totally avoid any contact or rebuttal throughout this mess. The grandchild is worth it.
[He will be lucky if he does not end up in the Graybar Hotel]
That’s in California, saw someone post to you about it.
I don’t know the situation on them. He has pretty much ruined his chances now but don’t know why he couldn’t see the child before this. There HAVE to be good reasons to deny access.
He will be dropped by his handlers when he is of no more use. He is 19 years old with a mother who is a druggie. The Palins could have turned his whole life around and taken it in a wonderful direction. That is not going to happen. No one is happy about seeing a life wasted. No one decent.
As I have stated since Levi started his childish, fame whoring behavior... it is all being documented by Bristol Palin, and she has a compelling- if not overwhelming- case for full custody.
ROFL! Barney Frank?
Something tells me if it was not for the prominence and position of his wife, Todd would have already taken out the trash.
Okie dokie then.....back to the drawing board for plan B !
Thanks for the info !
100% correct.
