Things are getting uglier. Police officials were called to Paula Patton’s Calabasas, California, home on Friday, January 13, in connection to her ongoing custody battle with ex-husband Robin Thicke, a rep for the Lost Hills Sheriffs Station confirmed to Us Weekly. “All I can say is that basically we had a call to respond for a civil matter,” the rep told Us. “No action was taken on our part, no report was written. It was completely civil.” 
 
 
 
 According to TMZ, Thicke, 39, called police to Patton’s home on Friday morning because she allegedly violated their custody order by refusing to release their son, 6-year-old Julian, to him, per their agreement. In a video posted to the site, Patton, 41, can be seen giving the police officers her information and thanking them for showing up. Thicke does not appear in the video.

 The site reports that on Friday morning, the deputies went inside the house and spoke to Julian, who said he was scared to leave with his dad. The “Blurred Lines” singer later left the confrontation sans son. 
 
 
 
 As Us Weekly previously reported, Thicke is currently under investigation by the Los Angeles County Department of Child and Family Services amid allegations of child abuse for spanking his son. According to court documents, Julian reportedly told school officials that his father had allegedly spanked him more than once, causing to the school to send a report to the DCFS on January 3. Thicke was interviewed on Thursday, January 12. 
 
 The singer denied any wrongdoing, saying in court documents obtained by Us, “On a very rare occasion and only as a last resort, I will use light spanking, but it is consistent with the law — open hand on the butt. This is the type of discipline to which Paula and I agreed during our marriage.” 
 
 
 
 For her part, Patton has reportedly filed an emergency order asking a judge to restrict the Grammy nominee’s time with his son to monitored daytime visits only. The Warcraft star alleged in court documents that since Julian found out “that [Thicke] is being told about Julian’s complaints, Julian’s behavior has become very concerning.” 
 
 Thicke also claims in the court papers that Patton’s accusations stem from anger at not being invited to his famous father Alan Thicke’s funeral last month. 
 
 
 
 “It is my belief that Paula holds residual anger towards me because I and my family would not permit her or her family to attend the funeral of my father on December 20, 2016,” the singer alleges in the papers. "Paula did not have a positive relationship with my father … As such, she was not welcome at his funeral. It is my belief that Paula only wanted to attend because it would have resulted in additional public exposure for her."

 Robin Thicke, Paula Patton Embroiled in Custody War with Allegations of Physical Abuse 
 
 EXCLUSIVE 
 
 Robin Thicke and ex-wife Paula Patton have been embroiled in a nasty custody fight over their 6-year-old son. It's escalated to a Child Services case over alleged physical abuse, and Robin just scored a legal victory. 
 
 Sources familiar with the case tell TMZ ... Julian told school officials at the beginning of the year his dad had spanked him ... more than once. The school reported the incident to the L.A. County Dept. of Children and Family Services on January 3rd, and the Dept. opened an investigation. 
 
 Paula then began denying Robin access to their son, and filed an emergency order asking the family law judge to restrict Robin's contact with Julian to monitored daytime visits only. 
 
 According to legal docs Paula told Robin, "Julian is scared of you." 
 
 Paula says in her declaration, the day before Julian told the school, he told her that Robin spanked him "really hard." He demonstrated and hit Paula on the back so hard she said, "ow." Julian then said it was actually worse than that. 
 
 A school official also submitted a declaration saying Julian told her Robin frequently "punches" him very hard. 
 
 Robin says in legal docs, "On a very rare occasion and only as a last resort, I will use light spanking, but it is consistent with the law -- open hand on the butt. This is the type of discipline to which Paula and I agreed during our marriage." 
 
 There's also a declaration from a nanny who claims she has seen Robin smoke marijuana on several occasions in front of Julian. And there's this: Paula says at Julian's kindergarten graduation last June, Robin showed up drunk at 8:30 AM and was "hooting and hollering and making inappropriate jokes" in the Catholic church. 
 
 Robin claims this is all about his decision to block Paula from attending his dad Alan's funeral last month. He says in docs, "Paula did not have a positive relationship with my father and often made negative comments to me about my father. As such, she was not welcome at his funeral." 
 
 Sources connected to the case tell us there was a hearing Thursday morning and the judge denied Paula's request to limit Robin's joint custody and also a request for drug testing. 
 
 As for DCFS, we're told social workers have interviewed Julian twice and also interviewed Paula. Robin is being interviewed Thursday afternoon.

Sign up now for the Us Weekly newsletter packed with the latest celeb news, hot pics and more! ||||| One day after an L.A. judge rejected Paula Patton‘s request to limit ex-husband Robin Thicke‘s joint custody of their 6-year-old son, Julian, the dispute between the former couple is becoming increasingly fraught. 
 
 A representative for the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department’s Lost Hills station confirms to PEOPLE that law enforcement officials were dispatched to Patton’s Calabasas home Friday morning after Julian didn’t arrive at school. He had missed his visitation with Thicke the evening before. The representative referred to the incident as “a non-event” but said “it involved a child not wanting to go with someone.” 
 
 Court documents obtained by PEOPLE show that Patton texted Thicke to tell him she was picking up their son on Thursday, Jan. 5, despite it being Thicke’s custodial time. “Paula sent someone to school to intercept Julian, in violation of the custody orders,” Thicke’s lawyer, Angela Pierce di Donato, tells PEOPLE, adding that “she did not return him to school today.” 
 
 Thicke’s lawyer says the singer is concerned about Julian’s well-being. “Julian only shows any evidence of emotional harm when questioned by Paula or in her presence,” says Pierce di Donato. 
 
 Counters a source familiar with the situation, “Julian has made it clear he does not feel safe in his father’s presence, a fact confirmed today by the Malibu Sheriff’s Department determination — with Mr. Thicke present — that the child needed to remain with his mother.” 
 
 The pair’s divorce was officially granted last March after a yearlong separation. In legal documents filed Thursday, the actress accuses Thicke of physically abusing Julian — which the “Blurred Lines” singer adamantly denies. 
 
 According to the documents — which include declarations from each parent, Julian’s nanny, school principal and counselor — Patton says she’s “become concerned about [Robin]’s drinking and drug use, as well as the forms of punishment he is using to discipline Julian” over the past year — specifically, spankings that Patton believes were too hard and made Julian “scared” of his dad. 
 
 A school counselor also states in court papers that Julian told her in November that his father “punches him so hard, but never where someone can see.” She and the school principal decided to meet with Patton and then to call L.A.’s Department of Children and Family Services on Jan. 4. Pierce di Donato maintains the meeting between Patton, Julian and school officials was poorly handled. “The school improperly allowed Paula to sit in the room while Julian was questioned,” she tells PEOPLE. “He was described as crying, hyperventilating and clinging to his mother.” 
 
 The source close to the situation responds: “It is well-documented in court declarations, not only by the mother, but by two school officials as well as the child’s nanny, that there are allegations of abusive behavior by Mr. Thicke. To be clear, it was concern by school officials, not Ms. Patton, that led DCFS to initiate their ongoing investigation into allegations of abuse by the father. Despite Mr. Thicke’s intent to smear her as a mother, Ms. Patton must do everything in her power to protect her son.” 
 
 In his declaration, Thicke said he had “never exceeded age-appropriate discipline” with Julian and only spanked him “lightly” as a “last resort,” and he says he and Patton had agreed to that type of discipline. He says he has not had physical contact with Julian since Dec. 31, and that after Julian’s first day back at school on Jan. 3, Patton refused to let father and son FaceTime in private. 
 
 Pierce di Donato categorically denies the abuse allegations, claiming that Patton’s accusations stem from resentment over being barred from her former father-in-law Alan Thicke’s memorial in December. 
 
 “We believe that Paula was angry that she was excluded from Alan’s funeral last month,” Pierce di Donato says. “A week later she refused to allow Julian to open presents with Robin on Christmas morning. Days later, a referral was called into the child abuse hotline.” 
 
 According to Pierce di Donato, Patton had repeatedly asked Julian about any inappropriate forms of physical punishment inflicted by his father. 
 
 “Paula’s own declaration submitted to court yesterday shows that she has been routinely questioning Julian for nearly three months about his dad ‘abusing’ him,” says Pierce di Donato. “She even questioned him the day before Julian told his school.”

 Thicke was interviewed by the Department of Children and Family Services on Thursday afternoon. 
 
 “The Department of Children and Family Services has extensively interviewed the family, including Julian. They put no restrictions on Robin’s custody and advised Paula to follow the court orders,” Pierce di Donato says. “Julian was interviewed by a forensic interviewer at the request of the Sheriff Department. When interviewed by both agencies outside of Paula’s presence Julian was not tearful, emotional and expressed love for his father.” (DCFS declined to comment on the case, citing privacy rules.) 
 
 Pierce di Donato alleges that Patton requested the emergency hearing on Thursday because she was “unhappy.” Patton asked for Thicke’s time with Julian to be supervised, and not to include overnight visits. A judge denied the requests.
– Robin Thicke and Paula Patton's custody battle is spiraling: A judge on Thursday denied the actress' request for an emergency hearing Patton was seeking in hopes of limiting her ex's time with 6-year-old son Julian, reports ET Online. Spanking appears to be at the root of the request: Julian is said to have told adults at his school that Thicke spanked him more than once, which triggered an early January call to the Los Angeles County Department of Child and Family Services. It's looking into the alleged physical abuse, reports Us Weekly. TMZ quotes Patton as writing in court filings that Julian confessed the alleged excessive spanking to her the day before he spoke with school officials. She asked him to demonstrate, and says that she called out "ow" as he hit her back, with her 6-year-old saying it was actually more painful than that. E! News has Thicke's reply, per court documents: "On a very rare occasion, and only as a last resort, I will use light spanking, but it is consistent with the law—open hand on the butt. This is the type of discipline to which Paula and I agreed during our marriage." He further alleges that Patton is going after him because she's dealing with "residual anger toward me" after he prohibited her and her family from attending dad Alan Thicke's December funeral due to unkind things he says she said to him about the elder Thicke. TMZ has some more accusations leveled against Thicke, including Patton's allegation that he showed up to Julian's kindergarten graduation—held at 8:30am on a June day in a Catholic church—drunk "and making inappropriate jokes."
