I'm just looking for some reassurance, my live in girlfriend's ex wants to take her to court over child custody (child will be 5yrs next month).
Basically, her divorce decree states shared custody 50-50. Her ex never fullfilled his part, only picking him up 2 nights a week, and every other weekend. The two nights a week he picked him up from daycare he didn't keep him overnight, only for a couple hrs. Many, many times he wouldn't even take him on the weekends he was supposed to, or pick him up the nights he was supposed to.
Three months ago her ex moved out of state, 6hrs away, her ex has driven the 6hrs to pick him up only once. Her and I, or her parents (they live in the same town as her ex) have taken the child the 6hrs to see his dad on approx 4-5 occasions in the past three months.
Now he has a lawyer and is claiming that she is not being cooperative. According to him, we need to meet him 1/2 way, should we????? would a judge rule that?????
My big question, should we be worrying ourselves over this??????????
