‘Young and the Restless’: Adam Plays Hardball – Nick Cornered in Custody Court

The Young and the Restless spoilers promise Nick Newman (Joshua Morrow) and Adam Newman (Mark Grossman) have their day in court. But things go very badly for Nick. He’s been feeling cocky about beating his little brother. After all, he has Chelsea Newman (Melissa Claire Egan) and the rest of the family on his side, but he underestimated his little brother – and it’s about to cost him. Take a look at the antics in court coming up on the CBS soap.

Young and the Restless Spoilers: Adam Newman Forces Michael Baldwin to Ditch Nick

Y&R spoilers say Nick Newman’s got a great lawyer – Michael Baldwin (Christian LeBlanc) – but then he loses him. Adam’s got some dirt on Michael – perhaps tied to Kevin Fisher (Greg Rikaart). It’s so inflammatory that Michael lies to Nick, quits, and leaves him hanging. Stubborn Nick Newman refuses to ask for a continuance to hire a new lawyer. He overestimates his capabilities.

Nick’s so puffed up and confident that he thinks he can beat Adam Newman in this custody battle even without a lawyer. So, he decides to go ahead and have the hearing. Big brother thinks that he can squash Adam in court and end this issue. He’s certain he’ll walk out of the Genoa City courtroom with permanent custody of Christian Newman (McGuigan Twins), say Young and the Restless spoilers.

Y&R Spoilers: Nick Newman Fights His Own Battle – Falls Short

Young and the Restless spoilers predict that Nick Newman’s feeling so cocky that he thinks he can’t lose. But he’s not a lawyer. Still, he explains to the judge that even though he’s not Christian’s biological father, he’s the only father the kid has known. No doubt, he’ll try and say that Adam Newman faked a paternity test and wanted him to raise his son. Nick’ll bring up all the ammo that he’s got.

But the judge has some tough questions for Nick. First, he wants to know about the prior custody battle with Victor Newman (Eric Braeden). After all, Victor won against his son Nick in court. That was because Sharon Newman (Sharon Case) tainted the case. Not only that, but when things don’t go his way, Nick Newman acts like a brat in court and the judge doesn’t like it, according to Young and the Restless spoilers.

Young and the Restless: Adam Newman Plays Trump Card in Court

Y&R spoilers say that the judge takes a dim view on Nick’s attitude in court. Which pleases Adam, naturally. Then, it’s time for little brother to move in for the kill. He set up Kevin to send incriminating evidence about Nick to his lawyer to show the judge. It’s likely that video of Nick playacting in a dead man’s face – but Kevin’s plotting against the resurrected Newman, so we’ll see if it works out for Adam.

The latest Young and the Restless spoilers say Adam Newman goes all out to make Nick look bad in court. But even if he does win, would Adam really rip Christian Newman out of Nick’s home? After all, he’s almost a total stranger to his son. So, taking him from the only dad he knows would just be cruel. Even if Adam wins the custody verdict, he might not have the nerve to snatch back his son.
