My 2 year old son's father commited suicide December of last year. Prior to this he was granted joint legal custody when my son was 6 months old. Before that he was in rehab for 6 months. During my pregnancy and the time of his visitation, me and my husband had many conflicts and a physical altercation with my son's paternal grandparents. They have recently served us with papers for custody/visitation, but was denied custody, even though they acussed my husband of abuse, which is the furthest thing from the truth. We offered for them to come visit our son on his birthday, but they wanted to pick him up rather than come see him (less than a week after his father's death). I denied their request to pick him up and a couple of weeks later I was served. I am against them having any form of visitation because they have proven that our indifference will not change and I do not want our son being raised in the middle of conflict and chaos, but the judge here stated that no law will over ride his better judgement and granted them visitation....there was no due process by the way. Now we're looking to appeal it and go to the supreme court. My question is what can I do about the time in between as far as them not getting visitation until our hearing? I feel this will only hurt my child in the long run and that he should not have to be involved until it is decided whether they will get their visitation or not.
