Overview
- The court left in place the August 1 stipulated plan that gives Sia primary custody and limits Daniel Bernad to professionally monitored visitation.
- Bernad’s filings alleged Sia is an unfit parent due to recent substance use, citing a claimed two‑week hospitalization and positive tests for barbiturates and benzodiazepines, and he sought random drug testing and tightly restricted visits.
- Sia’s response denied current drug use, stated she has been sober for more than six months with weekly testing and a sober companion, and asserted Bernad refused to undergo regular testing.
- Sia referenced LAPD and DCFS inquiries into alleged illicit child‑pornography material tied to Bernad as closed or inconclusive; Bernad denied wrongdoing and alleged evidence was planted.
- Financial issues remain before the court, with Bernad requesting $77,245 per month in child support and previously seeking more than $250,000 per month in spousal support, while Sia says she has already paid him $300,000 and argues his push is financially motivated.
