Legal Question in Family Law in Minnesota

Child visitation

If a man is not yet divorced, will a new relationship be a factor in determining child visitation? Can the wife use the new relationship against him in court, even if the new relationship is not viewed by the child? From what I understand the new relationship would have to be detrimental to the child to even be admissable in court, is that correct?

Re: Child visitation

You are correct that the new relationship would have to be adverse to the chil's interests for it to be considered. Adverse would mean more than morally objectionable.

Any prenting schedule determinations are based on what is in the child's best interests. Visit us online at http://www.divorceprofessionals.com
