Legal Question in Family Law in New Hampshire
Step parents rights
I recently filed for a modification of child support with my ex
husband of 10 years. This was the first time i filed for a
modification since the original order 10 years ago. My ex is
remarried and neither one of them are happy that i did this. Since
taking him to court, his current wife has been sending me letters
regarding my daughter, the way i manage my money, telling me
what is best for my daugther etc. I am receiving letters from my ex
as well, but am receiving more correspondence from her which i
feel is harrassment and what is written the letters is a defamation
of my character. I do not belive that she has any rights, legally or
otherwise concerning my daughter. I have physical custody of my
daughter and my ex and i have joint legal custody. Can i advise
that her writing to me is to stop immediately and that she has no
say in what goes on with my daughter that it is between my ex and
me. I plan on advising my husband that she is to stop, if she does
not is there anything i can do?

Re: Step parents rights
What ever few rights the ex's wife may have, she has no right to send you these letters. But as long as they are not threatening, there is probably little you can do. Unless of course you believe and have information that her actions to your child are a source of harm. Tell your ex to have her back off, or you will seek legal action.
