“Cameras weren’t allowed in the mediation, but the production team was filming outside the courthouse,” a source confirmed. Evans, 25, had refused to let Griffith see their two-year-old son in recent weeks, claiming in court documents that his “multiple criminal charges,” were a negative influence on the baby. She even filed an emergency court motion to drastically alter their custody situation, as RadarOnline.com exclusively reported.

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, Evans’ court documents detailed why she did not want Griffith to have unsupervised visits with their child. “Defendant communicated to plaintiff that defendant’s mental health is not stable and that he is unable to care for the minor child,” the documents claim.
Ultimately, she was victorious in her bid to curtail Griffith’s free time with the baby. "He has to have supervised visits with his mother supervising him with Kaiser from now on,” a source close to the Teen Mom 2 star told RadarOnline.com.
Griffith will be allowed to see Kaiser every other weekend, and the source told RadarOnline.com that during the proceedings he begged the judge to allow him to see the toddler. “He said he would sign or do anything if she would just let him see Kaiser,” a source told RadarOnline.com. “But she has told him to come see Kaiser for months, just drive to her, but he didn't!"
However, RadarOnline.com learned that the new custody arrangement wasn’t finalized, and baby Kaiser’s future is still in limbo. “Both parties have to sign the paperwork and their lawyers have to get it to the judge and then a judge will sign it,” the source told RadarOnline.com.
