Legal Question in Family Law in Arizona
I am the sole custodial parent of my son. Recently, the father of my son moved out of state. He has stated that he has signed over a power of attorney to his mother. My question is, as a non custodial parent could he give his mother his visitation to allow access to my son, without my consent?

Generally speaking, the father cannot "delegate" his parenting time to his mother. That doesn't necessarily mean that the grandmother should not see your son; however, there is not a presumption that she steps into the father's place. It might be appropriate to ask the court to modify the orders to reflect what the father's actual parenting time will be, and then have separate arrangements for the grandmother to spend time with your son.
I hope this information is useful!
He cannot simply assign his parenting time to his parents over your objection.
