Bixby, OK asked in Child Custody, Child Support and Family Law for Oklahoma

Q: My fiancé has a child with his ex she will not allow him to see the child or have visitation because of me

His ex will not allow visitation of their son due to her not liking me or the child he and I had together he hasn’t paid child support because of a job situation so she is now adding that to a the reason he can’t see their son they have done a paternity testing and proved he is the father. They have never been to court over visitation rights she has let him see their son a couple times in the past year on her terms and at her house only and it’s always late at night can she keep their son away from him just because she doesn’t like me and the daughter him and I had together and can he still file for an enforce for child visitation rights ? We have multiple text of her denying rights to see him
