Q: I have a friend that has a baby mama that is withholding him from seeing his child though he has custody is that legal?
There is no court order for this and they are trying to bribe him with 5k to sign his rights over even though he wants to see his son is this legal
A:
If he has custody and the other parent is withholding the child, he needs to quickly take legal action to enforce the court order. The court can only help him if he is takes the proper steps to bring this matter to court.
Best of luck!
A: If your friend's baby mama is not complying with the custody order, your friend may need to take legal action to enforce the order and ensure he can spend time with his child as outlined in the court-approved arrangement. This might involve going back to court and seeking enforcement of the existing custody order. It's important for your friend to document any instances where visitation is being denied
