After a long legal battle I have finally got a court order and contact with my son has been progressing positively. Following on from supervised contact in a contact centre and now successfully moving to unsupervised contact in the community my ex has made things very clear the only problem she has is not wanting our son to ever meet my current partner of 6 years, he cannot come over to our house or stay overnight.
The court order states that after my unsupervised community contact with him “overnight contact on alternate weekends is to be be agreed between the parties” my ex thinks this means that she has the right to forbidden him from staying over altogether, I believe it states agreement on dates/time - any advise on this?!
Hi. The part where it states both parents to agree overnights, in court order is this written under section: IT IS ORDERED. Or is it written under recitals heading?
This can't be a final order , surely ? If so that wording is terrible and you are in a mess with that - I'm guessing you are due another hearing in the future if not more than 1 ?
As Billy said check the order , because if it's under Recitals , it's not enforceable anyway and again , you're stuck.
