Re: Child visitation
He is entitled to visitation. If the mother will not let him visit then he must file a lawsuit in Circuit Court seeking visitation rights. Although it is possible to try to do this yourself, it is rarely effective. Consult an attorney. He may be able to get an agreement without going to court.
