A: You have the rights given to you by the court order for parenting time. But the lockdown rules have created an unusual situation, and problems for compliance. You can file a motion with the court to enforce the court's order, but your ex can then explain to the judge her reasons for limiting exposure and the lockdown rules she must follow. The judge would then decide what to do. Use the Find a Lawyer tab to retain a local family law attorney who can review the situation and advise you.
