Re: vistation rights
You should be able to arrange more time with your child in your state depending on the type of relationship you had with the child prior to the mother removing the child and coming to Minnesota. Also, you may be able to modify your support obligation to account for the costs of visitation. I need much more information than what you have provided. I need to see the current court papers, if any, and also know what you are earning so I can determine what your support might be under Minnesota Law.
