Olivier Martinez Seeks Higher Child Support After Court-Changed Custody

He has asked the judge to recalculate payments to reflect his larger parenting time by requesting updated financial disclosures.

Overview

  • Olivier Martinez filed to modify the August 2023 child-support order so payments reflect his current majority parenting time after the court revised the parenting plan.
  • A judge dissolved Martinez’s temporary restraining order but kept the interim custody arrangement that gives him primary physical custody and bars Halle Berry from overnight visits.
  • Martinez’s filings say he earns about $776 per month in acting residuals while listing roughly $17,556 in monthly expenses and that he cannot compute a new guideline support number until Berry provides current income-and-expense disclosures.
  • He separately has asked the court to order Berry to pay about $240,000 toward his attorney fees and has opened discovery to obtain the financial records he says are needed for a new support calculation.
  • Discovery remains open and a December 17, 2026 hearing is scheduled to resolve outstanding custody, support and fee requests, with the August 2023 support formula of $8,000 monthly plus 4.3% over $2 million serving as the baseline for recalculation.
