James' attorney, John R. Schilling, told Us Weekly that if Lindemulder moves to Texas, where James, 42, and Sunny live, she'll be ordered into an inpatient rehab facility. "If she decides not to move to Texas, she gets one weekend a month basically, with no overnights, but a total of 8 to 10 hours of monitored visitation in Texas with Sunny," Schilling said.

"Jesse is very pleased with this decision," his attorney added. "He feels that all along, he's been saying what Janine needs is inpatient treatment, and until she faces up to to her own issues and problems, she'll never be able to have a good relationship with her daughter. He feels totally vindicated with what the court has decided.

"This is great news compared to some of the other news he's had this week," Schilling added, referring to James' split from von D, 29.
