Q: Can I pick up my son from the sitter's house cause mom is with boyfriend son is not to have contact with the boyfriend
My son is supposed to be visiting with the mother for the weekend but she takes off with the boyfriend my son is with a babysitter because my son is not to have contact with the boyfriend because of domestic violence and child abuse can I go to the babysitters and pick up my son
A: Review the court orders carefully since the orders should provide guidance on this issue. If you have the right of first refusal, you should have been notified and provided the opportunity to pick him up. If the court orders are unclear, you may need to file a request for order to get back into court to address this issue, especially if the mother isn't spending time with the child, etc. Definitely consult with a local family lawyer before taking action.
