Custody Order

Question: Custody order ? Ok I know I can't get an exact answer and that it could depend on the judge but I have a custody question and looking for insight and opions. I have had my daughter everyweekend since she has been born per custody agreement and order from her mother and I. I have received a letter from the court that I am now being taken back by her mother in an attempt to get visits every other weekend. NOw that would mean I lose so much time with her. Her mom don't work in the summer so she is home all day everyday. On top of that she let her miss 30 days of school this year. So Ig uess what I'm looking for are opions in what people think in terms of what a judge may due. This is in philadelphia. Has anyone experienced something similar to this?

Answer: It is very hard for anyone to give a reasonable assessment of what a certain judge might do in a certain fact pattern Without knowing your complete visitation it is usually customary for the child to spend every other weekend with the non-custodial, but i do not know all the facts in your case, in return for every weekend did you for go some holidays? extended stay over the summer etc? I would re-exam the visitation to see if the court is going to rule for every other weekend that you be given some extra time some where to compensate for the lost time, IE longer time in the summer or more holidays etc

I am supposed to receive the written order in the mail and I am wondering how long this usually takes.

Answer: It really depends on the judge. If both parties were present, then the order is in effect, you just dont have any paperwork as evidence if there is a violation. Call the court, you may have to request the copies.

Answer: This all depends on what type of an agreement was made and what forms you signed because if it is a personal agreement made between you which is not recognized by the family court,you may have a situation.9 times out of 10,the women generally recieves full custody of the child or children unless there is a mutual and legal agreement or court order which states that you have sole custody of your child and that she has reasonable visitation and should also financially support the child.As far as time for and custody order,if you believe that the child is in danger or being abused,I'd suggest that you get an attorney and put him/her to work on it immediately because you must wait in line just like everybody else as the courts have dates when they hear cases but in the mean while it would be possible to contact your local Social Services agency for assistance.In the event that you and your ex have been arguing over custody issues,you must look at the facts especially if you are only separated,legally separated etc.Agreements don't hold any water as the court in most cases will over ride any agreement and look only at whats best for the safety and welfare of the minor child.Hope you can resolve your issues be for youi have more .GoodLuck.
