Child Visitation question ...?

Although child visitation guidelines vary from state to state, judges have a lot of leeway in writing the visitation order. He could consider the needs of the parents and the child.

Who is sleeping with whom and how much money either parent makes are irrelevant to child visitation issues. The new husband is NOT the children's father. Children have the right to have healthy relationships with both their BIOLOGICAL parents.

Mom cannot legally change the children's name without Dad's permission. If she did, she committed fraud and forgery. Dad could have the name change reversed.

New husband has no legal obligation to support his step-kids. Therefore, his income WILL NOT and CANNOT be an issue.

Bio dad has parental rights. The children CANNOT be adopted by mom's new husband without his consent.

Mom is in violation of the visitation order. Dad needs to assert his parental rights. File contempt of court charges against her. She could lose custody of her kids, and she could also go to jail. Interfering with child custody is illegal.

The courts are only interested in what is in the best interest of the children, and not what mom, mom's new husband, dad, or even the children want. Again, it is in the best interest of the children to have healthy relationships with both their biological parents.

Hope this helps

The legal standard is the children's best interests. If the court is convinced it is in their best interests to have no contact with their biological father, then there will be a no-contact order. BTW, if step-hubby wants to be the kids "real" dad he should file for a stepparent adoption. Part of adoption is getting the biological dad's parental rights terminated. I don't see the court doing either with the facts you've given.

Unless the father has molested his children or have a history of violence or excessive drug use, there is no way that a mother can keep him out of their lives. Nothing you've listed says to me she has any chance of keeping him out of their lives. If she wants her new husband to be seen as their father, that's just too damn bad...she should have just had sex with him and had children with him then. She chose to have sex with this other guy and has to live with it now.

She can be anything from you view. The problem is the judge is at her side that make you in very difficult condition. You have the law. All you did and you want are reasonable and lawful. But it is so popular to see the judge ignores the law and we can do nothing. I think you need to look the case as how to make the judge to follow the law. Judge's duty is to keep both sides under the law but the some judges do their own convenience regardless the law and the consequences we have to suffer. Good luck to you.

the youngsters are with the father each and every weekend, and via the week they're with you? is that ultimate? in case you finally have been the extensive-unfold parent it may be very complicated for him to get custody of them. it is effortless to take him to courtroom for newborn help so which you do no longer would desire to concern if he would be proposing you with money for the youngsters. it truly is no longer his problem what you spend the money on, as long because of fact the youngsters are nicely taken care of. you are able to deny him choosing up the youngsters in concern he wont return them, if he's threatening you of bodily no longer giving them back "i does not enable him to get them", except I had a documented and signed that he might return them after visitation. I say you get your self an lawyer to guard you and your infants. he's unlawful… nicely you are able to say you're afraid he will take the youngsters to Mexico and not return them. IF he's legal the ball is truly on your courtroom!!
