Nicolás Vallejo-Náger, known as Colate, has filed a legal appeal in Miami to challenge a custody ruling regarding his 15-year-old son, Andrea Nicolás. The original decision by a Miami-Dade court granted custody to the boy’s mother, Mexican singer Paulina Rubio, allowing him to reside with her in the United States.

Represented by attorney Aliette Carolan, Vallejo-Náger is seeking a review through the Eleventh Judicial Circuit Court. The defense is contesting the ruling based on what they describe as “serious omissions and contradictory conclusions,” specifically requesting that the court consider direct testimony provided by the teenager during private interviews.
