Gibson gets extra time with daughter

LONDON - Actor Mel Gibson has been granted extra visiting time to his baby girl in the latest round of custody court battles with his ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva.

The Braveheart star has been locked in a bitter fight with the Russian singer over the custody of Lucia, since the couple split earlier this year, with Grigorieva accusing Gibson of attacking her in January.

They signed an agreement in May granting them both joint physical and legal custody of the baby. Gibson was entitled to a total of six days of visitation with Lucia including three overnight visits every two weeks.

However, the case returned to Los Angeles courtroom and Judge Scott Gordon agreed to increase the amount of visitation for Gibson.
