Brooke Mueller is battling to have her twin sons, Max and Bob, removed from Denise Richards' custody.

As OKMagazine.com previously reported, the four-year-old boys were taken away from Mueller last weekend, by the L.A. County Department of Children and Family Services, amid concerns for their wellbeing.

They were placed in the care of Richards, who was married to the children's father, Charlie Sheen, before Mueller.

Brooke has since checked into rehab—for the 20th time—this time, purportedly, for an addiction to prescription pills.

Denise Richards, who was married to Charlie Sheen before Brooke, currently has custody of their two sons

Meanwhile, TMZ reports that both Charlie and Denise think it would be "ridiculous" to move the twins to the care of Brooke's brother, as he has no established relationship with the young boys—in addition, it would mean uprooting the kids from their family, friends, school and doctors.
