Q: Clarification on court-ordered visitation weekends in March 2025

I need clarification regarding my court-ordered visitation schedule for March 2025. The schedule specifies visitation from Friday at 6 PM until Sunday at 6 PM, but I'm unsure which weekends are considered the first and third. This is based on a court order, and there have been previous disputes about weekend definitions. Could you provide guidance on how this might be determined?

A: The definition should be in your parenting plan. Usually, the first Friday of the month is the first weekend. For example, if May 1st is a Saturday, that is not the first weekend. If May 1st is a Friday, that is the first weekend.
