Legal Question in Family Law in California
visitation
During my divorce I became depressed and began having problems. When my husband got
custody of my daughter, I had a
breakdown. My husband wouldn't
let me see my daughter on the
weekends that were mine. Then my son from another marriage was taken from the home because of my condition. He began acting out
at school.
I had a mental health issue.
I have been on medication for over
a year, was allowed supervised
visitation with my son. My son then went to live with his father.
He now lives with my sister. My husband refuses to let me see my
daughter and says he has the
right to choose whether I see my
daughter or not. My daughter wants to see me just as much as I
want to see her. What can I do?
It is breaking my heart not to see her and he won't allow my parents
to see her also. He acts like I abandoned her. I was getting help
and healing. I am all for supervised
visits.

Re: visitation
You need to file a motion with the court and obtain an order that you have visitation. Then if he refuses to allow visitation you can go to court to enforce the visitation order.
