Chris Brown has been granted joint custody of one-year-old daughter Royalty.
The 26-year-old appeared in court in Houston on Friday, where the judge granted all of his requests. The court issued a gag order against Royalty's mother Nia Guzman, and also agreed to Brown's figure of $2,500 a month in child support.
The singer was seeking 50/50 custody, while Guzman was pushing for supervised visits only, TMZ reports. He will be allowed to take his daughter home today.

Guzman was seeking sole custody, and wanted to block Brown from unsupervised visits with the little girl.
However, the judge ordered them to share 50/50 custody of Royalty, and the child will now move between them every four days.
The judge also ordered Guzman not to speak negatively about Brown or discuss the case on social media, reportsTMZ.
And the court agreed to let Brown continue to pay $2,500 a month in child support, instead of the $15,000 a month Guzman was seeking.
Brown posted a photograph of himself from inside the Houston courtroom, writing 'I've been in the court for the last 2 hours,' and adding hashtag '#ILOVEROYALTY.'
The singer dressed down for court, in ripped jeans and a white Tshirt. He wore a number of gold necklaces as he smiled and posed with court officials.
Brown requested the gag order after he and Guzman had a number of public spats over their daughter, often lashing out in public via social media.
Guzman has called Brown's home an unsafe environment, citing concerns after a break-in at his home on July 15.
