Q: Are the details below obstruction of justice and if so, can I file for obstruction of justice?
I am currently in a custody case with 3 individuals. Me, the Father, and his sister/intervener (sister has guardianship) we just went through a Child family investigation and the CFI recommended that the guardianship is no longer in the best interest of my son and that my son should be returned to me. The CFI states in her report that the “Father failed to timely comply with numerous requests and deadlines throughout the investigation, including payment of his $1,375 portion of the CFI’s fee, which was instead paid by Intervenor, despite the Court’s finding that she was indigent”. The intervener requested the CFI in a ploy to continue parental alienation with false accusations and applied for state assistance in which she was approved and then she paid for her brothers portion. Is that considered obstruction of justice?

A: A CFI Report not not pertain to "justice" but rather the best interests of the children. Generally prosecutors are not interested in pursuing issues that arise in civil matters. However if you believe that someone behaved inappropriately in the civil case, you can raise that issue in the civil case.
