Kim Basinger Pleased with Custody Hearing

Kim Basinger's lawyer, Neal Hersh, said, "We are very, very pleased with the judge's thoughtful decision about what happened here today," after a Friday hearing was held to reportedly determine whether Alec Baldwin should still have visitation rights with his daughter, after a voicemail was leaked where he called her a "thoughtless pig" and threatened her, two weeks ago. Hersh would not reveal further details.

A judge closed the hearing to the media and sealed records in connection with the hearing to protect the interest of the child. Baldwin was not present at the meeting for fear his comments would be leaked.

Baldwin's lawyer, Vicki Green, said leaking the tape was inappropriate and "will be with [the child] for the rest of her life." Baldwin apologized for the tape during a TV appearance and said he wrongly took his anger at Basinger out on their daughter.

A further hearing is scheduled for June 5 to investigate who leaked the tape.
