Filed papers against ex-wife

I just filed a motion with the local family court to force my ex-wife to allow me visitation with my kids. Commissioner Irwin Joseph had issued an order on Jan. 11 to allow me supervised and unsupervised visitation with my kids. My ex-wife as always refused to comply.

Cmr Joseph happened to pass me in the hallway in the courthouse today. He recognized me and said, "hi". I responded "hi". I was actually waiting to see the official court file. The clerk said that she could not find it because the case was on appeal. I don't know what the appeal clerk would be doing with the file.

Cmr Joseph had previously refused to do anything because I did not have a psychologist-approved visitation plan. I now have such a plan. I attempted to get my ex-wife to comply outside of court, but she refused.

I thought that my ex-wife had a lot of nerve to claim that I have not been obeying court orders. Her motion to shut down this blog will be heard on Oct. 8. My motion to compel her to comply with with the psychologist's recommendation will be heard on Oct. 15. We also have two scheduled hearings on financial matters this month.

dude, if you still have an active order from the family court, all you need is to enforce it, first give the mom a notice of your pickup time, and then show up, for the pickup, if she does not show, CALL THE POLICE. the police is the public servant to enforce the court order, or even show up at her door with the police, that is your supervised pickup, if you need a supervised visitation, hire a baby sitter, and the sitter can give you a clean bill report of the visit,and you can file it with the court to show good visit. that is what I did, until my ex learned not to play games with me anymore.

It is not that simple. If I had an order with a schedule for my visitation, then I could do that. I just have an order to follow a psychologist's recommendation, and a recommendation. I will need another court order before the police will help me.
