Antonio soon becomes involved in a fierce custody battle with Keri's father R.J. Gannon over Antonio and Keri's daughter Jamie.

In an attempt to secure custody, Antonio uses his Santi inheritance to drive R.J.'s club into bankruptcy and then into his own hands. He hopes to force R.J. to return to a life of crime so Antonio might then catch him in the act. Antonio succeeds and regains full custody of Jamie, and re-opens R.J.'s club "Capricorn".
