Young Jeezy is taking his estranged wife Jeannie Mai to court, to try and get joint custody of their daughter, Media Take Out has learned.
According to court documents obtained by Media Take Out, Jeezy is accusing his estranged wife Jeannie Mai of acting as a “gatekeeper” when it comes to their 1 year old daughter Monaco — and he’s asking a judge to step in to stop her.
Jeezy says, in court documents, that Jeannie Mai “has been temporarily residing with the Child in the parties’ home in Los Angeles.”
And Jeezy says that they have no formal parental visitation arrangement.
The rapper’s lawyer wrote, “The lack of consistency, continuity, and stability inherently associated with such a haphazard and fluid parenting time schedule is stressful to the Child, and it has, as is unfortunately inevitable with all families in transition, created unnecessary tension and confusion regarding not only parenting time but also in regard to each parent’s role and rights when the Child is in their respective custody.”
While Jeezy doesn’t believe Jeannie Mai is “acting maliciously or with specific intent to harm,” he accused Mai of having “acted as a gatekeeper when it comes to [Jeezy] exercising parenting time with the child as well as in regard to [Jeezy’s] parenting rights and as the Child’s father.”
Jeezy further wrote that Jeannie Mai’s “interference with [Jeezy’s] relationship with the Child, again, while not generated from or with malicious intent, is nevertheless, causing confusion and tension between the parties and is working to stifle the development of [Jeezy’s] relationship with the Child.”
He added, “As such, it is necessary at this point to separate, structure and clearly define the parties’ temporary legal and physical custody rights and set a parenting time schedule consistent with the best interests of the Child.”
