Overview
- On Oct. 27, Daniel Bernad asked Los Angeles Superior Court for sole legal and physical custody, random drug testing for Sia, and three weekly professionally monitored visits for the singer.
- In an Oct. 28 response, Sia said she has been sober for more than six months, participates in weekly testing with a sober companion, and urged the court to deny any emergency change in custody.
- Sia’s filing references correspondence indicating the LAPD Internet Crimes Against Children unit and L.A. County DCFS reviewed alleged images tied to a hard drive, with the matters characterized as closed, suspended or inconclusive.
- Bernad denies any involvement with illicit material, accuses Sia of planting evidence, and alleges she was secretly hospitalized for two weeks in September with positive tests for barbiturates and benzodiazepines.
- Bernad seeks about $77,245 per month in child support and has separately requested more than $250,000 monthly in spousal support; no court ruling has been reported and the child remains primarily in Sia’s care.
