Larry Birkhead is a step closer to bringing Dannielynn home

Larry Birkhead, Virgie Arthur and Howard K. Stern were back in court today for a custody hearing over baby Dannielynn, 7 months. Virgie is petitioning for joint custody of the baby while Larry wants full custody - after all, it is his child. It appears an end might be in sight - after court, Larry remarked,

It was a good day for me in court!

Star Magazine is reporting that Larry could be bringing Dannielynn to the United States as early as next week. A source told Star:

The judge ruled that Larry can take his daughter to the U.S. next week, as long as all the paperwork is in order. That includes correcting the birth certificate to show that Larry is the father, and not Howard and getting Dannielynn a U.S. Passport. All of that is in the works and should be ready by next week, and Larry can bring his baby home!

Everything should be finalized next week at the final hearing needed before Dannielynn can go to the United States. The custody hearings related to Virgie's custody concerns will resume in June due to Virgie's attorney's busy schedule. Entertainment Tonight is reporting that Virgie's team is expecting for the custody battle to turn into a full-blown trial. However, many others related to the case don't feel it will go that far.
