Legal Question in Family Law in Alaska

This is a tough one.

From your zip code, I assume you are in the Anchorage area.

You write that the father "does not utilize his visitation now, and is inconsistent". Which is it; he never exercises visitation or does it intermittently? Perhaps the judge feels that the father may, in time, become more serious about exercising available visitation. Or perhaps the judge expects more definite evidence on when the father did have visitation, when he did not, and what were the circumstances in each case (Did he have a good excuse when he failed to exercise visitation; were the time, place, etc. for visitation clear to both of you, etc. ?). In case the judge does so expect more details, I suggest that you file a motion for reconsideration, giving as much relevant detail as possible.

Also, you indicate that the judge denied your motions yet a final judgment has not yet been entered. If a divorce decree was entered previously, it is unclear that a final judgment will be needed. It looks like the order denying your motions may be preliminary and not necessarily what the judge will rule in a final judgment. Is there a further evidentiary hearing (trial) scheduled?
