Q: My timesharing rights were suspended in 2016 because I didn’t show up to court because I was incarcerated. My ex gave
My Parents legal guardianship of my daughter who is now 17. My parents and my daughter want her to come to Florida to stay with me for Christmas but my ex is saying I need to file a modification and petition the court for visitation. If my parents have guardianship legally through clay county courts then can’t they give the approval to allow her to come to see me? This is just a visit for the holidays but I do not want my parents or myself to get into trouble so what can we do?
A: If your parents still have legal guardianship over your 17 year old daughter--without any restrictions on their time-sharing rights (such as an agreement that allows your ex visitation rights over the Christmas holiday)--then they are the ones who get to decide.
