Because the court did not write and publish a decision, the magnitude of the case was not immediately appreciated. Reporting on the custody battle over Moses, Dylan and the couple's biological son Satchel, last week's tabloids trumpeted the more lurid aspects of the rumpus -- such as the offer by Farrow's lawyer to show the court a sheaf of "pornographic" photos that Allen had taken of Soon-Yi -- before Judge Phyllis Gangel-Jacob sensibly called the two stars into her chambers and told them to shut up.
