A: When you say ex, what do you mean? Do you have a divorce decree? Are you just spilt? Has the Court defined you as the father? Was there a Paternity action, or was the child born out of your marriage? Do you have a custody agreement?

Those are some of the questions that need to be answered before I can give you a definitive answer. If you have court ordered visitation or joint custody, your ex cannot withhold the child. Your attorney should file a motion to compel visitation. Secondly, you can file a motion for modification of custody since a boyfriend is a material and permanent change to the environment.

You should have an attorney to help you ... 918-884-7791 Boeheim Freeman Law
