He takes her to court... you said he already has vistation rights... then she is violating a court order. THey will enforce the rights they already gave him.
He should have already known this and done that the first time she refused. They can just as easily modify their order givng custody to him if she refuses to abide by it.
Contact your lawyer... I bet this stops really quick shortly after he does that.
Yes he has a court order from a judge but she won't let him see them she took them away because he moved on with his life and when she found out that he was getting married she took the children away
How does this tie in with your other post where the father wants nothing to do with the child and your new husband wants to adopt? I thought the username was familiar.

To different questions he wants to see his children and I want to help him and my kids fathers won't give them the time of day and I was never married to him this is my first marriage
OK, it was mighty confusing before you answered that.
My answer stands... he already has a court order... she is in contempt of court... his lawyer petitions the court detailing that and things get really ugly for her really fast. The court does not like people who defy them.
Ok thank you so he has to get another lawyer
Yes...Quote:

Yes, YOU NEED a lawyer to process the adoption. It could be the same lawyer handling his visitation issues. But he doesn't necessarily need an attorney to cite her for contempt of court. He simply petitions the court to hold her in contempt for not obeying the existing visitation order.
Ok thank you so much
How does he petition the courts
Well that depends on local court rules. The best thing would be to go to the local Family Court and ask the court clerk what he needs to do to file a contempt complaint.Quote:

Whenever one goes to court, it is better to go with a lawyer. Especially if the other side has their own representation. But, if he's just trying to get her cited for contempt, he probably does not need an attorney. However, if he used an attorney to get the original custody/visitation order, it would be a good idea to have that attorney help him follow through.Quote:

Ok thank you
