Jesse James and Kat Von D just broke off their engagement, but there's one woman who's staying put. Well woman, 7-year old girl. Jesse, 42, was awarded sole custody of his 7-year old daughter Sunny in an Orange County, California, courthouse on Monday. This ends a multiple year custody battle between Jesse and Sunny's mother Janine Lindemulder.

Jesse's attorney John Schilling had made public that when Janine chooses to relocate to Texax, to be near Sunny, she'll need to go to an inpatient rehab. When she chooses to stay in California, she'll only be allowed to have monitored visits with Sunny.


John Schilling tells People Magazine, that "Jesse feels vindicated. This is what he's been claiming all along, that Janine needs therapy." Janine's attorney hasn't commented yet.
