...page decision, Orange County Superior Court Judge Nancy Wieben Stock terminated Lou and Juditha Brown's guardianship of the children, declaring they had failed to prove, as California law requires, that a return to Simpson's custody would be detrimental to the children. From his Brentwood home, O.J. Simpson issued a "first and final" statement about regaining custody, saying he was "grateful to have the children home again where they want to be."

You begin to feel the righteous indignation. What, do you mean I have to apply to get tens of thousands of dollars to study abroad? I'm the elite! I could try out for The Real World!

Not only have all the participants been placed under a gag order, but reporters have been barred from the courtroom altogether, as they typically are in California child-custody cases. There is no jury. Superior Court Judge Nancy Wieben Stock will be the only one to decide whether Sydney, 11, and Justin, 8, should live with their father, or remain with their maternal grandparents, Lou and Juditha Brown. The children have been living with the Browns ever since Simpson was arrested in June 1994. After his acquittal on murder charges last October...
