641 Questions Answered
- Q. Teen is refusing visitation? Even if I show up to drop off and teen does not comply, can I be held in contempt?
- A: As long as it is the teen who refuses to visit and you are not telling him not to go there is no contempt. The therapists opinion is also helpful.
- Q. Is it legal for a you to have full custody yet a judge gives more visitation to the other non custodial parent?
- A: Custody and visitation are 2 different things. Yes you can have full custody but the court can still provide the other parent with visitation as the courts hold that visitation is in the child's best interests.
- Q. Can I move my children from NY to RI when there is no custody or visitation in place?
- A: You cannot move without court approval or consent from the father. Even thought there is no current order, you make it clear that the father is seeking 50/50 legal custody thus "custody" is an issue. If you were to move, you risk the court ordering you to move back to NY. You should get a clause in the custody order that gives you permission to move or file a custody petition with a request to relocate. Discuss this with your lawyer if you have one and if not I strongly suggest you speak to one before doing anything.
