Tyrese Doesn't Show Up For Court Custody Hearing

Tyrese Gibson did not attend his court hearing Tuesday.

A source told Page Six the “Fast & Furious” franchise actor was expected to appear in court over the custody battle he’s embroiled in with ex-wife Norma Gibson, but he didn’t show. Instead, his lawyer Terry Levich Ross, who filed for a substitution of attorney Monday, appeared in the Los Angeles court on his behalf.

At the hearing, Norma’s attorney, Aleen Khanjian, requested the judge demand a mental evaluation of actor, following the recent tumultuous activity on his social media pages, including an emotional breakdown and claims that “psych meds” caused it. The judge has yet to approve the request.

Khanjian also argued that recent videos about his daughter Shayla violate the gag order Norma received barring him from discussing Shayla online. Tyrese since has made his Instagram account private.

The court hearing wasn’t Tyrese’s only act of absentia, as he was also accused of bailing on court-approved visits with his daughter.
