Does she has the right to do this and what can he do.He overstayed his visitors visa..

Re: Wife refuse children to spend time with ex

Is your husband an immigrant?

I asked because you mentioned a "visitors' visa.

Your husband can file a petition for visitation with Family Court in the county wherein he resides.
