From a Los Angeles on Friday morning, Judge Mitchell Beckloff made order for Jeane and Carla Burgos but wanted to make it clear that he didn’t do it because he believed claims made by Bruce’s camp that they were saying anything negative to the children during their visits.

But with an upcoming custody trial set for November, the judge thought it would be best to have another set of eyes and ears with the sisters and the children during their visits.

A court-ordered forensic expert will examine the authenticity of Monica Beresford-Redman’s last will and testament, RadarOnline.com is reporting.

Bruce Beresford-Redman, the former Survivor Producer who is still wanted in Mexico over the killing his wife, asked a Los Angeles judge on Tuesday to appoint the specialist, amid an ongoing legal fight with his wife’s surviving sisters.

Jeane and Carla Burgos are challenging the validity of the 2008 document, which names Bruce as the executor and gives Bruce's parents an interest in a house Monica owned.

The remainder of her property would go to Bruce, according to the will.

"I have no reason why I would not allow Ms. Hahn (Bruce’s lawyer) to have her expert examine the will,” said Judge Mitchell Beckloff, who set a date of August 6 for the forensic study to be completed.

At the centre of the legal joust is the claim that there are no witnesses to validate Monica signed the document.

The couple’s former nanny, Maria Beatriz Oaxaca, who Bruce fired last month because she refused to support his innocence, is a potential key witness.

But the nanny reportedly says she knows nothing about Monica signing a 2008 will.

"Ms. Oaxaca said that is her signature on the document but that's not the document that she signed,” the Burgos’ attorney, Richard Petty, told court.

Petty has submitted a different will -- from 2004 -- in opposition to Bruce's claim.

In another twist, the court was told Bruce’s legal team is trying to find the couple’s former cook, who is also said to have witnessed Monica sign the document.

Petty also asked the court to appoint a special administrator to oversee the affairs of the estate, specifically, in regards to insurance policies.

"There was discussion that Beresford-Redmans are having trouble paying the mortgage on the Rancho Palos Verdes house and I think there's a need for people to notify life insurance companies of the litigation and make sure mortgage payments are being made,” Petty said.

But the judge said he would only consider such a move if evidence was presented to the court, which it hasn’t, to date.

While an arrest warrant remains active for the television producer, who is accused of beating and strangling Monica to death, Bruce is free to go about his normal business in California.

He plans to fight any extradition plans, while Monica's sisters areconsidering filing a wrongful-death suit.

Bruce Beresford-Redman squared off against his slain wife Monica Burgos’ family in a Los Angeles court on Monday. The former Survivor producer, who is the only suspect in Monica’s murder, won a small victory when the judge sided with him regarding visitation of the couple’s two children.

An attorney for Carla Burgos, one of Monica’s sisters, requested one overnight visit a month and an additional hour during their current Tuesday and Sunday visits during the summer. "We're asking for an overnight because when the kids are with us they don't want to go back. They get very sad," Carla said. Bruce’s attorney asked for her comment to be stricken from the record and said that the Beresford-Redman family was willing to work with the Burgos family.
