Re: Parenting time
The test for visitation is "best interests of the child." Before terminating the parental rights of your son's father, the court will require a review of what types of disruption are ongoing and what the casual relationship is between visitation and disruption which will be balanced against your son's father's right to visit with his child. If you wish to challenge the court ordered supervised visitation, you should consult with an attorney.
Re: Parenting time
I have read the answers given by the other two attorneys. They are correct.
You will need an experienced divorce attorney to represent you, to give you the best chance of succeeding in eliminating or controlling the visits with his mentally ill father.
If you would like, give me a call; I am in northern New Jersey. I will be happy to discuss this with you; the telephone consultation will be free.
