Lindon, UT asked in Divorce and Child Custody for Utah

Q: Utah father's rights suspended didn't complete required classes. He wants a visit am I liable for anything if I let him?

Are there any legal ramifications if I let him see his son when the court has suspended his parental rights for not completing his required parenting classes? He will make my life difficult if I say no and claim he did the classes which he hasn't. But if there will be liability or trouble with the courts for me if I allow him a visit when his visitation has been suspended, I won't let him see him.
